Fragmented reality comes to my mind. Very powerful. Such creativity here. Wonderful work. V

Au départ, une idée originale et créative; à l'arrivée, une galerie captivante, dans les multiples reflets de laquelle le regard éclate et se fragmente avec délice. Belle réussite. Voté.

Split personalities? I'd say so...but it's cool to think of a world where there were more than just one of that person in the mirror. I think the world could be a better place then. No. I think that it WOULD be a better place then.

Phenomenal Gallery. A great idea well executed. Strangely this is the second time I am
going to compare someone's pictures w/ film images of the famous avant guard film maker
Maya Deren. Don't worry you are in good company the other photographer was our friend
Lester Weiss. Voted.
Guest 06-Feb-2007 00:51
Somewhat disturbing with the eyes in color. In the images with no obvious human reflection it's even more disturbing since it seems like some sort of loss has occured, the viewer anxious that something's been overlooked.
Concept would work great as an album cover. A modern "Meet the Beatles" style.
Richard Nadeau05-Feb-2007 14:00
Incredible concept, flawlessly executed. Your creativity never ceases to amaze me and always provokes a strong emotional response. Your photography often has an introspective quality that reveals something universal in each of us as you take a closer look at your inner self. I'm haunted by these images.
Guest 28-Jan-2007 16:08
These images are absolutely stunning. Voted!!!

Rene Hales10-Jan-2007 22:27
I should have also said that I think the title of the gallery, Shards of Reality, is a perfect fit.--Rene

I really had to take a double-take when I saw these images for the first time. Christine,
you've done a great job here with an original concept, and developing it so well. Thank
you for sharing, and inspiring me! Wonderful...and moving.

Another superb, and very creative gallery Christine! The images are fascinating,
and I admire your imagination. Big Vote!
Guest 08-Jan-2007 02:00
a very nice series. the idea is cool and you have carried it out well. it's at an intersection between the real and the abstract. the fragmentary reflections of your face turn it into abstract self-portraiture.
Guest 07-Jan-2007 17:23
A superb artistic effort, "reflecting" the superior eye of the artist. Kudos! zM
François Hamon07-Jan-2007 17:15
A great gallery and a great idea... Scattering of glass, but density of talent, here...

Brilliant fragments of self. V
René Lortie03-Jan-2007 19:08
Superbe! Le cubisme revu par Christine.
J'aime beaucoup cette idée d'autoportrait fragmenté par les tessons représentant chacun 'une' facette de la réalité.

Richard Calmes03-Jan-2007 18:27

Rob Rosetti02-Jan-2007 19:51
Disintegration. Disgregation. Desynching. Fragmentation. Suffocation. I see a lot of meanings here. I'm a bit scared... Vote.

Travail intriguant, original et créatif. Belle galerie!

Bravo, très bien!
Et c'est tu ca que tu fais quand quelqu'un te dit de te casser? (Casse toi!)
J'espère que ce n'est pas toi qui a cassé le miroir tu sais les 7 ans de malheur peuvent-être vraiment long......

Bravo Christine, Très bien vu, très créatif, très expressif.
J'aime beaucoup.

I like very much this post-modern version of my "Through the Looking Glass".

jude01-Jan-2007 22:27
From start to finish - from the absence of reflection, through the integral parts that make the person, and ending with fingers reaching inward - this is so excellent Christine..
Brava!
Guest 01-Jan-2007 21:54
To me, this speaks of acceptance and transformation. The shards come slowly together reflecting a picture which is now different than it once was. It is broken.
But it also is (or will be) whole again. It is like a doorway, I see awareness and willingness to enter into a new experience...
Brava!

Alfred Hoch01-Jan-2007 21:36
Excellent work!
Adalberto Tiburzi01-Jan-2007 21:26
Intense, creative, dramatic, tender, nostalgic, rhythmic, variated...
In one word... no words.
