She has indeed redefined self-portraiture; her work is almost a new sort of portraiture, exposing not herself but truths about being human.jochanaanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14143066702059757955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-359119424342025391.post-39516106421663616282012-01-23T01:33:15.077+00:002012-01-23T01:33:15.077+00:00I've always been apprehensive of about doing s...I've always been apprehensive of about doing self-portraiture because I didn't want it to be construed as vanity work or uninspired, I guess. I would probably do a lot more work if I didn't feel so artistically bankrupt in trying it. It's like I'll think of doing something and think "no, that's really cheesy or lame" but then realize that there's plenty of other photographers/artists who use those techniques or styles and that I'm not giving myself enough credit for exercising them as a tool and not as a crutch. <br /><br />I'm really interested in bringing the concept of inhabiting character to my model photography, since I started as a filmmaker first. I'd like to find those illustrative moments that way. I get really burned out just shooting posing and fashion.Bohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436695792969763745noreply@blogger.com
