Reflecting New York is a series of perfectly matched reflections, a pairing of both what is directly in front of the artist and what is behind him. Falke perfects the graphics of buildings, trees and bridges with only a slight manual adjustment to what the mirror captures. “I soon realized that the mirror is an actor in the picture, not just the reflection in it,” says Falke. “Then came my hand, which I tried to avoid showing at first, but it became an important part of the series. It became history: a hand mirror, mine Mirror, creates unusual sights in familiar places. “
