This self-portrait explores the complex interplay between identity and illusion. Beginning with a photograph of myself wearing a mask adorned with makeup, the image gradually transforms into an artificial version of me. Through this metamorphosis, I delve into the narratives we construct—both for ourselves and others. The mask and makeup symbolize the personas we adopt, blurring the lines between reality and facade. This work challenges viewers to reflect on the layers of identity they present to the world and to question the authenticity of their self-representation.
