Abstract

Mirror System (2023) consists of a montage of excerpts from tutorials, demos, and promotional videos for cameras and lenses. Young has cut away all images of the photographers (a systematically male figure in this type of production) to expose a sequence of models (invariably female). Their “capture” by the camera is thus inverted in a powerful affirmation of a feminized gaze.
