I Am My World | 1st Year Theme-Based Project



The subjective document is always, in some respects, a mirror image. Through this small task, notions of ‘the self’ are re-examined and one’s own immediate enviornment is explored.
First year students have adopted several approaches to creating subjective documents. Some are intimate and introspective accounts - showing us inner and private worlds.  Some are consciously challenging notions of the self through the ‘act’ of self portraiture. Here, issues of cultural identity, anxiety and loss are addressed as are the self-affirming notions of self through friendships, relationships and family.
What is presented, in this selection, is a broad expression of students’ present and past experiences, perspectives and perceptions.


The work was selected by a ‘jury’ of 2nd year students who made choices of the work on two levels – firstly on aesthetic merits, secondly the work which, for them, best connects to the theme. Presented here is a selection of the jury’s favourites.
