Mirrors and friends
“Eternity” (2014) by Montreal-based artist Nicolas Baier @ Aresenal Contemporary gallery in Montreal.
To see ourselves clearly and fully, we need mirrors or the help of others.
If we use a mirror, it mustn’t be warped. If we seek the help of others they mustn’t lie to us.
That means, then, to see ourselves clearly and fully we must be committed to the craft of reflection and the craft of building trusting, intimate relationships.
Which implies that it is also an important craft to help others with the previous two.
