#queer self portrait

[skydarcyedwards]

Why take so many film selfies?

1. Selfies are portraiture and portraiture is art.

2. Self recording, self acceptance regarding gender/body issues, and I want my art presence to be inseparable from my queerness.

3. A practical process reason; My film equipment is mostly rescued e-waste that I've repaired, and it needs to be tested. So it is also a selfie of the camera and lens. The test result (image quality) and subject (camera) are neatly* recorded together as an image.

I wish it didn't de-purple my hair so much, but that's on me for not processing them; I like posting these as-developed sometimes, and some of my film and lighting doesn't register purple well.

*"Neatly"... sometimes. The lens information isn't visible here because of the narrow depth of field. It's a fun but unreliable recording method. Write Everything Down in science and art.

My thesis-painting this semester! I worked with two subjects of this pieces; 1) the censorship of queer and trans identities in our age of social media in part due to the anti-lgbt hate and laws passed this year and 2) the value of traditional art and artisanal mediums such as textiles ,in an increasingly digital art market, by appropriating digital iconography using entirely traditional mediums and techniques.
