Without a Shadow


The photographs in this series begin as self-portraits. They are then digitally manipulated and altered.

I am interested in the notion of a digital truth and the distance that continues to grow between the photographic image and its conception in reality. Within the concept of digital truth, this series explores the body's evolution in digital representation. I use myself as the crude material for each image and from that create new characters solely from and in the digital realm. This process reveals the ideal human form to be reconstructable and malleable, especially today where the body is not seen as a sacred object but simply an object ready to be manipulated.
