In The Mirror, Patricia Calonje invites us into a space of introspection through a seated female figure, whose red dress contrasts with the palette of soft tones surrounding her. The work, executed in mixed media on panel with collage and methacrylate print, plays with the overlay of layers and textures to suggest the complexity of memory and identity.

The composition, centered on the figure and the mirror hinted in the background, creates a dialogue between the real and the imagined. The artist uses light and color to evoke an atmosphere of calm and serenity, inviting the viewer to personal contemplation. Each element seems to float in a suspended time, opening multiple readings about how we see ourselves and how we are perceived.
