'The Mirror' by Adrianna Deron c. |
The self-portrait is
always, in some respects, a mirror image. Through this assigned theme, notions
of ‘the self’ are considered, explored and re-examined. First
year students have adopted several creative and conceptual approaches relating
to this theme and produced some engaging and thought-provoking work befitting
the assigned task. Some are intimate and introspective accounts - conveying
inner and private worlds through self-representation. Others use the task as an
opportunity to perform and express an inner state. Here, issues relating to identity,
morality and the body are addressed. Other work produced articulates self-affirming
notions of self through relationships and family connections. What is
presented, in this selection, is a broad expression of students’ present and
past experiences, perspectives and perceptions. Well done to all.
