‘Water Mirror’is a condensation of all that makes Suzuki’s photography so appealing: his profound ruminations on the subject of photography itself and the continuous questioning of what it means to ‘look’. The series explicitly shows the artist's engagement with the origins of representation and the principles of the photographic medium. ‘Our eyes gather and sort visual information and the brain creates a coherent understanding of a scene as a whole. But the water surface is an exception, as it acts like a mirror creating complicated optical effects. […] The sight of a space seemingly of extraordinary depth appearing in the flat surface of the water is one of mystery, and our gaze is lured, sucked even, deep into this world we can see.’ – Risaku Suzuki. When you look at the water through the lens of a camera, the leaves are shown in utter verisimilitude, making it impossible to distinguish the reflections from the actual trees standing in the soil and air. The result is a mimetic representation that only exists within the photographs. In their presentation, Suzuki interchanges the positions of air and water by switching the vertical orientations of the photographs. Trying to determine whether the photograph is of trees or their reflection, we realize that originally, the photograph is itself a reflected image – an interlaced visual experience, where the works themselves become an idiosyncratic photographic theory. With its luscious, thoughtful images, ‘Water Mirror’ invites on a fascinating voyage of perceptions and will probably become one of Suzuki's most representative works.

Risaku Suzuki
Risaku Suzuki was born in 1963 in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, and now lives and works in Tokyo. He is well known for his dedicated series of pictures from Kumano, Wakayama Prefecture, one of Japan's most sacred places and the home of Suzuki. One of Japan's most prominent photographers, Suzuki presents unmistakably Japanese subjects - like cherry blossoms and snow, which are both timeless and refreshingly new.

Dusk Lilies (Black & White Landscape Still Life Photograph of Water Lilies)
By Betsy Weis
Located in Hudson, NY
Minimalist landscape photograph of black and white lilies on water
"Dusk Lilies", photographed by Betsy Weis in 2006
archival inkjet print on watercolor paper
20 x 30 inches, 27 x 37 inches in white frame with white mat & anti-reflective non-glare glass
Wire backing for easy installation, ready to hang as is
Photographed at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, this black and white archival pigment print by Betsy Weis captures a cluster of water lilies afloat on a glassy, onyx-like body of water. Looming clouds and nearby trees are reflected in the pond's serene surface. Crisp, moody, and rich in texture, the photograph can stand on its own as a quiet glimpse at nature, or can be juxtaposed with others in the series to form a more complete vision.
This photograph is available unframed, $1800. The image measures 20 x 30 inches, and the paper measures 24 x 26 inches.
Artist statement:
Nature provides the perfect model of beauty, according to Plato and Socrates. In the classical period, something was considered beautiful because it existed in nature; art was secondary. In the 18th Century, the German philosopher Johann Joachim Winckelmann argued against the idea that art imitates life, believing that qualities superior to nature are found in art, specifically, ideal beauty, and “brain-born images”. Neoclassical thought represented that art need not serve any end other than its own existence. For me, beauty is an ideal, nature is real, and art comes from the brain.
I take pictures in nature, finding shifting, disparate, and beautiful landscapes. I develop my pictures of trees...
