Self Portrait installation uses basic functions of graphic design and semiotics to examine and question contextual ideologies and societal perceptions. Assembled with a conscious design, each individual piece is hand made and skewed by material and image. Comparing the object's archetypes and their known functions to the new context they are assembled in. Wood milk crates in the appearance of rusted metal, boards of wood with hand painted wood grain, photographs of conch shells with speakers installed, mass produced fold out tables made out of wood with a canvas wood grain table top. All adds new applied value to each object, individually ironic in their literal nature calling to question the sufficiency of the photographic memory and our other senses in comparison to the present. The work calls the viewer to examine sections and objects individually, and also as a whole from afar. Allowing multiple more personal sub-layers of visual communication to function underneath the concepts of the bigger picture presented. Thus aesthetically rising to question the chaos or control of how perceptions are interrelated with our visual realities.
