Our prompt this week was to take a portrait that shows who others think we are. I was intrigued by this, because I consider myself to be a pretty private person. I wouldn’t take a plain selfie or portrait given this prompt; instead, I wanted to go more experimental showing bits and pieces of me in a fragmented photo. This is where I came up with the idea of using a mirror to show a part of me (I also didn’t want to bother my sister or take out my tripod). I also really liked how the mirror cut off part of the black chair and the bed in the background, making them look like they had glitched into each other. It gives the whole photo a weird, creepy, and dream-like feeling, which is how I feel that I present myself to others. Again, I’m not very open to many people, so I feel like everyone has a different opinion of how I am as a person, and I tried to demonstrate that with different angles of me in one photo.
