The collage photos are influenced by the Looking Glass Self social construct introduced by Charles Cooley. The looking-glass self simply defined, is how an individual imagines they appear to others. Each photo refers to a personality each model has in the viewer’s eye. I began first by taking multiple photos of each model. In Photoshop I cut the multiple images into squares and rebuilt each model from a template photo.

These wall sculptures were created out of a repetitive process. I made multiple rectangle squares out of wood, mounted them onto cut two-by-fours. Arranging them into a wavelength that when hit by light creates shadow stalactites.

The LED Experience is a series of photos that focuses on a color changing LED cat. The vibrant colors emitted from the cat peaked my interest and became the focus of the series.
