Identity: Self 

Like we did last class, I took photos of things that I feel could be a self-portrait of me without being a physical picture I took of myself. The first image on the left is of a shelf in my bedroom that has beauty products, snacks, etc... I feel that this photo and the things shown in it represent me and are a self-portrait of me because it shows things that I use every day of my life and my habit of how I keep the surfaces in my room, and a daily pattern I have. The objects are constantly in a different configuration than in this photo, so I captured just one moment in the way they are because of me. The image on the right is of a section of one of my closets in my room, I think that this is a super interesting self-portrait because clothes are literally me. When anyone looks at me they see these clothes which are who I am and part of a decision that I make every day to represent/present myself to the world  Overall really enjoyed this project, I took around 15 photos and chose only these too and the prompt of a self-portrait without being of oneself really made me think about what are things that could represent me both externally that others would recognize in a minute or internally that I hadn't thought about before.
