Experience Expressed
Experience Expressed is a 12 hour photography and graphic design project about “reframing the portrait”.
The core concepts are:
• We are made up of our experiences, the people we surround ourselves with, the things we’ve seen and heard.
• We manifest our sense of self into the world around us, through clothes, music, art, creations, our digital representations, the data we generate. All of these are now just as real representations of ourselves as our physical body is.
We are more than the sum of our life experiences.
I manifest my self-image through curation: designs, clothes, decor, the music I both consume and produce, the people I surround myself with, my digital footprint, and more. This is trying to grasp at that constantly changing self perception in the modern digital social landscape.
