"Reflection" has a multitude of meanings and allows for figurative and abstract interpretation:
Reflection as a wave phenomenon observed in physics such as the reflection of an image in the water, reflection of sound or reflection in a mirror; Reflection as the transformation of an image to establish symmetry; Reflection as a consideration of events in history, politics or society, whci shaped you as an individual, the people of a nation or which affect the world; Reflection as thoughts on what is important to you: your family, your home, your community; The process of reflection such as meditation.
You are invited to share your visual interpretation of reflections in art quilt form.
