Selfies

A series of self-portraits made through mirrors, windows, metal, glass, and other reflective surfaces encountered in passing. The images trace a body moving through changing rooms, cities, landscapes, and moments, but they are less about documenting where I have been than asking who, exactly, is doing the looking. Each reflection becomes a temporary version of the self: bent by light, interrupted by architecture, softened by weather, fractured by surface. As the locations shift, so does the figure within them. The external changes--a different street, a different room, a different horizon--become quiet metaphors for internal change: the ways identity is revised by place, memory, distance, and time. In these photographs, the self is never fixed. It appears indirectly, altered by whatever holds it. A reflection is proof of presence, but also of instability: I am here, I was here, I am already becoming someone else.
