Core Lens: (Rebecca Hobbs) Tuesday 1st April 2014

My Self Portrait Project is based on the ideas of text. These two artists have inspired me to take self portraits of my family instead of myself and merge text with their portraits. The way that the first artist has used text is interesting because of the constant use of text. So to do this i will experiment with the camera skills i have learnt and take a few photographs of my family members. Because ZHang Huan relates to what my idea is for this project and the image below, i'm also bring up family tree and heritage.


Zhang Huan
Family Tree, 2000 New York, USA
"I invited 3 calligraphers to write texts on my face from early morning until night. I told them what they should write and to always keep a serious attitude when writing the texts even when my face turns to dark. My face followed the daylight till it slowly darkened. I cannot tell who I am. My identity has disappeared."
