The Man in the Mirror , 2021
Digital Art

Usually, when people think of "alternative realities," they think of conspiracy theories and other dimensions. However, alternative realities also exist within us and are defined by our wishes, dreams, and perceptions. In fact, we hold so much power within ourselves; we can see whatever reality we wish to. The Man in the Mirror is meant to capture that essence of autonomy. Regardless of what the universe presents to us, how it affects us depends on how we react. This freedom of interpretation creates an infinite number of alternative realities accessible to anyone who is open to entertaining them.
