DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Andrei Tarkovsky → Soviet Union

His films use mirrors, water, and reflective surfaces as philosophical tools to explore consciousness, memory, and the nature of human existence.

Michelangelo Antonioni → Italy

He employs visual reflection through glass, mirrors, and architectural geometry to examine alienation and the gap between perception and reality in modern life.

Chris Marker → France

His experimental works use photographic stills, mirrors, and recursive imagery to reflect on time, memory, and the act of looking itself as a form of meditation.
