Untitled #3 (2004)

The work entitled “Modify” deals with female identity, using collage, performance and especially photography. The photographs, shot on film using a medium format camera are self-portraits in which I have constructed paper outfits using the pages of magazines. The body of work, a kind of performance for the camera it addresses the ideas and pressures surrounding the notion of beauty and the topic of perception of identity as manipulated in photography and media as well as the use of visual language strategies by advertisers.
