Honorable Mention
Blue self-portrait
DESCRIPTION
This picture was part of a series called "Sunglasses and stockings" realized for a portfolio exhibition.To work with contrary ideas is a very motivating source of inspiration. For this shoot of self-portraits, I integrated the notion of anonymity. Anonymous self-portraits, whose faces are never revealed. The identity of the subject is relayed to the second plane and the body becomes a graphic object. The idea of contradiction adds a personal touch. It is also an effective and fun way to get off the beaten track.
