Murray Fredericks’ Sublime Landscape Reflections
- Words
- Anna Dorothea Ker
Murray Fredericks takes immersive photos depicting infinite horizons and dreamy landscapes interrupted by a large square mirror.
The calming glow of each photo in his “Vanity” series, on view at London’s Hamiltons Gallery until 14th June 2017, continues the feeling evoked by his “Salt” project, but this time a mirror is introduced into each landscape, positioned in the lake by Fredericks himself. “Rather than reflecting our own image, the mirror is positioned to draw our gaze away from ourselves and into the environment, encouraging us to engage with light, colour and space,” the photographer explains.
