For "The Influence of Cinema" class at Photographic Center NW.

 

I was struck by an image from the classic Bengali movie "Nayak" where the protagonist reclines upon his train bunk, reflecting upon his life, before falling headlong into a revealing dream. I tried to replicate the lighting and post in a self-portrait.

Lakaï Dance Theatre presented The Block: An Afro-Musical as part of the 2019–20 MIT Performing series. In The Block, the street becomes a stage for self-reflection on toxic masculinity, racial profiling, mental health, and violence, all as a means of community improvement. Through hip-hop and Afro-Diasporic movement styles, the performers challenge stigmas on black and brown vulnerability and the difficulties of asking for help. Developed from individual narratives of the director and performers, the script shares personal stories of hardships and triumphs experienced in a tough and violent yet ultimately creative and resilient urban community.

DAY 027/365: "Self-reflection"

 

“To shelf perfection, just ‘cause someone else inspectin’,

Differs from what swells rejection, to reflect their self on your self-reflection?”

 

What do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror? Does your self-reflection trigger a stream of negativity or does it ignite a river of positivity? Or perhaps a mix of both? Whatever your case may be, just remember… Your self-thoughts should not be influenced by the thoughts of others. Someone else has no right or authority to calculate your worth & value unless you freely give them permission. You know what Eleanor Roosevelt use to say back in the day… Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent.

the girl behind the camera,

The spoons at Franklin Square Wine Bar have such a lovely shape for reflecting distorted images.

Testing out a new lens today and ran across this mirror and couldn't resist.
