I came over an article about identityby Matthew Palmer which I felt reflected a lot of what I will show in my final assignment. The name of the article was Just an Image or True Identity?
I woult recomend to read this article, an as a teaser here are some sitats:
“Our true Identity is obscured and ignored to make way for our made-up image-the way we want others to see us.”
“In defining our image, we take all the things that appeal to us in the world to create how we want to see ourselves. We set out to make ourselves visible in the world so our images are reflected back to us through the desire of others.”
“Constructing our identity has become a requirement in our modern Western society where we are constantly facing choices of identity and lifestyle. We have seen various ways in which popular ideas about “self” in society have changed, so that identity is seen today as more fluid and transformable than ever before.”
“The problem of defining our identity from exterior influences is they are unreliable; even seeking definition from within ourselves can be unreliable with our fluctuating emotions and confidence.”
What Matthew Palmer said with words I wil try to say with visual elements.
