Self portrait book - first page
The start of a large book which will showcase my musings on the theme of "self portrait"
The background papers consist of a mixture of paper types which were stored in my garage after I moved and which have been subsequently affected by water damage.
The figures are wrapped brown paper, which have been overwrapped with thread and painted with gesso and various paint effects.
The grouping of the figures is my attempt to show how the placement can affect one's understanding of the person's position in society.
