This is my first serious attempt at a self portrait. Two images were photographed at my home, while the others were captured in the studio at Ilam School of Fine Arts the day before, and on the day of the horrific Christchurch shootings on 15th March 2019.
On reflection the results explore my own morality, sexuality, struggles with mental health, vulnerability and trauma experienced when 51 people lost their lives. Images were captured on a large format camera using a cable release (4×5 selfie).
