To Be Seen ​

Picture
'Self Portrait'
'Between grief and nothing I will take grief (Faulkner) hmnn...maybe'

The ‘selfie’ dominates modern personal photography and portrays the self as always happy, confident and adventurous, even if the subject feels otherwise. ‘To Be Seen’ investigates vulnerability, loss and sadness as captured in the selfie portrait through the traditional craft based medium of cross-stitch. ​
