Mirrors were displayed in the main hall of The Hague City Hall (last week). It must have been a work of art, but I forgot to take a picture of the creator and couldn't find anything about it on Google. But it was remarkable nonetheless. The hall's roof against the blue sky, distorted as if reflected in water with a slight breeze. The white city hall was designed by Richard Meier. The people of The Hague call it "The Ice Palace". #reflection #reflections #architecture #denhaag #nederland #mirror #mirrorreflection #photography #fotografie #fediverse #pixelfed
A large mirror covers the entire image except for a narrow strip at the top and a small corner in the upper right corner. Diagonally, the mirror reveals the ceiling and parts of two sides of the inside of a tall, white building. The image in the mirror is distorted, as if it were a reflection of water with a slight breeze. Diagonally, large, flat skylights through which the blue sky and clouds shine, and white side walls with windows. From the center to the lower right, a high row of white balconies rises one above the other. Above the mirror and in the upper right corner, you can see a glimpse of reality: a gallery on the first floor.

It is said that the mirror is the symbol of imagery or of awareness. The mirror has the ability to copy the visible reflections of the world in its own figural reality. Scheler and other philosophers associated mirrors with thought because it is a mental instrument that is the reflection of the universe and enables you to observe yourself. Frequently mirrors emerge in legends and fairytales, showing what happened in the past or what will happen in the future or what is happening now from a very far distance.
The mirror always tells the truth. Without need for the masks we people wear to protect ourselves, mirrors reflect only what they see. In a way mirrors are able to perceive the soul of ourselves, as well as of the people and things surrounding us, as they are without cover. This is partially due to the fact that what we see when we look into the mirror is actually not reality. Rather, the reflection in the mirror is an inverted version of the world we live in. Or is it the other way around?
