Kagami Yurei – Mirror Ghost – 鏡幽霊

After racking my brain for months trying to name my mirror, i finally sort out the advice of fellow course mate and investigative genius Christopher Pegg. A few hours after asking him he came back with a corker, the japanese phrase Kagami Yurei! I found this extremely fitting for my project for a couple of reasons, the first of which is that i gained a lot of my inspiration from the visuals in Japanese movies like The Ring, The Grudge and Audition. Secondly the origins of spirits within reflection stems from an old japanese folk tale “The Mirror of Matsuyama” which is viewable here 

 

All in all a huge thank you to Mr Pegg!!
