Reflecting

David Bignell

Reflecting, 2026 Inkjet print on Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Gloss 27 x 27 cm

Reflecting explores the quiet moments of thought that emerge during travel. Seen through the train window, the figure becomes layered with reflections from both inside and outside, blurring the boundary between private emotion and the passing world. The image considers how we often see ourselves through fragments - memories, other people, fleeting moments - and how reflection can reveal both connection and isolation at the same time.
