Mirrors
In his work, mirrors, of Shay-Lee Uziel hybridizes children’s instructional film and a film documenting an artistic action. The artist, wishing to illuminate his dark studio with a set of mirrors, shares with us his plan and dilemmas. Like many other activities, the mirror games he plays with his daughter stree the joint playful aspect of the world of art and that of children. As far as children are concerned, beside the pleasure they derive from it, a game is a sensuous means of getting acquainted with the world: a discovery and exploration tool, child engages in a dialog with him- or herself.
