Duality; 2011 - 2016

29 images Created 20 Apr 2016

du·al·i·ty
noun \dü-a-ləә-tē also dyü-\ : the quality or state of having two parts

Duality is my long term, photography project falling under the fine art genre. The intent is to create a series of self portraits, that speak to the viewer both visually and mentally. I intend the images to be reflective and reveal meaning behind the evolution of the “Self”.

"I am conscious of myself and become myself only while revealing myself for another, through another, and with the help of another...”
~Bakhtin

Bakhtin’s theory on self realization through the use of a another is key to giving meaning to ourselves and our art. As I produce my duality, self identifying images, I have gotten to know who I am. Through playing multiple roles of my ego, I can explore the meaning of this quote.
