This is a series of self-portraits I have been working on. The series started with the idea that students may do a better job with their self-portrait projects if they were making silly faces in order to get past the self-consciousness and worry about our appearance. It has become more of an exploration regarding the meaning of identity. At this point, I think it is still becoming something. If anything, it is of utmost importance to laugh at oneself.
