I am interested in making images that respond to ideas about the “The Real You”. With the emergence of social media has come the growing popularity of ‘the selfie’ – photographic self-portraits which are often highly staged and where many people take or edit photos in such a way as to live up to celebrity culture and other people’s expectations. My drawing and prints are made in a bid to counter this, presenting a less guarded and filtered image.
