With this project, I intend to create myself, instead of finding my identity. People often ask themselves, "Who am I?" However, this may take them away from the truth. The definition of who they are could limit their own possibilities and the infinity of their essences. I believe that the self should be created, instead of being found. The self-portraits explore this idea since the face is obscured. The human face seems to emphasize "who" a person is and gives insight about the individual. This may misinform the audience. I would like to challenge the viewers’ misconceptions and stereotypes.
