“The word of a friend makes you cry, the word of an enemy makes you laugh.” – African Proverb
“Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.” – Benjamin Franklin
This is a fabricated self-portrait done in the darkroom.
I decided that I wanted to create a self portrait based on the proverbs stated above, being that those proverbs are lessons I have learned. I wanted to create a stage of expression where I played multiple characters in order to display an overall theme that conveyed a powerful message.
