About the concept of the exhibition "Reflected Reality".

Beyond the bustle of everyday life, we often do not notice the world around us, we rush along the usual routes, trying to catch everything and overtake time.

In mirrored display cases and office glass, in the smooth surface of ponds you can see another world. Is it just a reflection or a parallel world existing outside of our reality? An attempt to show this “other world” was made by Konstantin Markov in the project “Reflected Reality”. With the help of a camera, the author captured pictures of the reflected world at various points in its existence.

Not surprisingly, the reflected world gives us some information. Today, scientists from different countries studying the phenomenon of subtle energies have come to the conclusion that mirror surfaces have the property of memory. Memorize and transmit information of the subconscious of a person who looks into a mirror surface. But mirrored surfaces reflect the whole world around us: houses, cars, ships, mountains, clouds… It is these paintings of the reflection of the surrounding world that form the basis of the project "Reflected Reality".

The aquatic environment is fertile ground for the photographer. The frozen water surface reflects colorful houses and boats, creating a picturesque picture of eternal peace. A light breeze - and the idyll instantly turns into a multi-colored kaleidoscope, which is fixed by the photographer.
