The self-portrait on the left is where my explorative practice started. It was an experiment, involving a single long exposure, flash, good timing, and colour inversion in post processing. As I saw the first shots on the back of the camera, I realised that this two-in-one image represented something that I’d long described myself by "I seem different if you look at me from the side": the way I come accross as you look at me conventionally, straight on, is not the way I come accross if you catch me unawares, from the side. I see this literally and figuratively not just in myself but in many others - our lives and experiences contain many aspects which aren't always immediately seen, but are there nonetheless. How we present to the world depends on which "self" we want to present at that time, to that audience, in that setting.
Since starting my MA in photography at Falmouth University, I am diving more deeply into this topic, e.g. in the projects 'Sona and Profile.
