De "mirror series" is een presentatiewijze waarbij de tekeningen worden gereflecteerd in kleine spiegels. De spiegels refereren naar het gebruik van de 18de-eeuwse Claude Glasses, ook wel Black Mirrors genoemd. Dat waren kleine, licht sferische, getinte spiegels waarvan het gebruik populair was bij wandelaars en kunstenaars in die tijd. Zij gebruikten die om er het landschap in te bekijken, omdat ze een meer geïdealiseerde, pittoreske weergave van dat landschap toonden. Het toenmalige gebruik van deze spiegels heeft een interessante plek in de veranderende relatie van mens tot natuur.
