This piece explores layered perspectives, drawing the audience into the dynamic relationship between the side mirror, the reflected scene, and the background beyond the mirror. The intriguing composition invites viewers to navigate multiple viewpoints simultaneously—considering what’s behind the car, what’s reflected in the mirror, and what’s in front of them. The inclusion of the iconic phrase, “Objects in mirror are closer than they appear,” adds both a literal and metaphorical dimension, emphasizing the distortion of perspective and the relativity of distance. By intentionally writing out this phrase, I highlight its role in shaping how we interpret and interact with this visual narrative.
