Duality is my long term, photography project falling under the fine art genre. The intent is to create a series of self portraits, that speak to the viewer both visually and mentally. I intend the images to be reflective and reveal meaning behind the evolution of the “Self”.

     “I am conscious of myself and become myself only while revealing myself for another, through another, and with the help of another…”

~Bakhtin

In my own journey of becoming a self aware subject, I look into the works of 20th century Russian literary theorist, Mikhail Bakhtin. Bakhtin’s theory on self realization through the use of a another is key to giving meaning to ourselves and our art. As I produce my duality self identifying images, I have gotten to know myself better. Through playing multiple roles of myself, I can explore the meaning of this quote.

I hope you enjoy my images as much as I enjoyed the journey that brought them to life.

Not My Cup of Tea

In Each of Us There Is Another

The Quiet Sense of Something Lost

Awakening of the Self

What I seem and What I Am

Waiting For My Arrival

He Who Overcomes Himself is Mighty

Existing On My Own Terms

Time is an Illusion

Subject To Interpretation

In The Same Silence

It is the Spectators that Make the Pictures
