Self as Subject Assgn #1

SELFIE VS SELF PORTRAIT

And what perfect timing.. a trip to LA coincides. Let the ultimate in car/self obsessed/cosmically concerned of self image selfie commence..


Selfie, Los Angeles 2019

As I get into my own head venturing towards my final project, 'Sorry, I'm not home', here is an image I took for this series. The landscape spoke to me as did the atmosphere. A perfect vocation of the deeply lonely and subdued notion I feel since moving to San Francisco, to America in general. It feels and has felt scary, directionless and as if I've been misplaced with no where to run for shelter. I wanted to convey this is by seeming 'small' and insignificant. Almost lost in the image yet centered.
