The title refers to the story of Snow White. Central to this fairy tale is the stepmother's envy of her daughter's youth and beauty. "Mirror, Mirror" consists of a dressing table, photographs, three child-size garments and sound (45 min loop, silence intermittently interrupted by the sound of glass breaking).
