Portraits

 

 

In a world of increasing interconnection, we are often faced with the definitions that others make for us. In response to both inward and outward ideas of who we are, we attempt to master our appearances to reflect our ideal selves by making choices that control our visual appearances. Through grooming habits or choices in clothing and accessories, people actively construct their public image. The figure is instead utilized as a tool for deconstructing the social structures of separation and spheres of influence over individual choice.
