THE HERO WITHIN

THE HERO WITHIN

I explored questions of physical identity, beauty and dignity where people literally and figuratively recreated themselves through their ‘performance’ and where their self-presentation created a curious dignity that I found disarming.

Through my explorations of this world, I came to see my own role as something of an extension of the participants’ own strategies for self-display. Rather than seeing the images as ‘grotesque’ or ‘sexually charged’, I was using another medium and context to ‘show off’ their bodies to a new audience.

Dear Sir . I think that there are two reasons why your works had been voted or recommended the most by many curators , first of all, your theme is most definitely , or positively and simplest copmpared with any other applicant who had been taken part in the Celeste -prize 2011, and secondly this portrait had been taken in order to participate in this competition is neutral-ism which will symbolize the internet worlds globally .
