There are photographs of the painter Celia Paul standing in her paint-coated London studio, in a paint-encrusted long dress, standing in front of a mirror. She has painted her reflection in that mirror, and written, "The glass of the mirror, in my painting and in reality, is like a doorway in which I’m standing, my head turned away towards a mysterious interior.” Our recent conversation took place on Zoom.
