Destroy The Icon: Last Batch of Iterations

 Some more iterations using my Marilyn Monroe image.  Tried to make sure the original image was destroyed, but still there.

    I think you’ve destroyed this perfectly!! You can still tell what is going on without worrying about copyright, plus, you’ve got a fun variety of iterations!!

    Sylvia, these turned out so well! It was really fun getting to see all of your different iterations and how you got there. Your process is very informative of your style.

It's hard to think outside of the box as far as page edges go in Photoshop. You really took it to the next level!

Final Project: Why?

 Trying to think of a reason for creating this statue, I definitely had a subconscious reason behind this piece, and a faint idea of how to express it.  It's about my complicated relationship with my face and mirrors.  I had struggled with severe acne for about six years, starting from the tender age of 14.  It was something that sadly influenced me a lot as I was growing up and through my teen years.  Over the years it created a lot of self-hatred, low self-esteem, and depression.  Things that even now, although my skin is doing much better, still effect me and that I am still insecure about.   Gradually throughout those years of really disliking my face, I had taught myself to avoid looking into reflective surfaces, or looking at myself in full light.  After so much time this behavior became second nature, and even though I feel a lot better about my face now, I still find myself turning on the low light, or trying to avoid reflections.

 After having some time to think about the assignment and what might be both a fun and creative project, I think I have found my idea!  I intend to make a small spiral-bound book, bound so that the pages can go 360 degrees around.  The book will have 24 pages, one for each hour of the day.  There will be no set start or end to the book, it will be a day cycle so you could open at any page and go through it.  For each hour (page) I'm thinking it will be a self portrait of sorts of how I'm feeling in that hour.  I'll take a few self portrait photos of the hour and paste them together collage-style.  For the backgrounds I would like to use abstract color to represent the feel of the hour. I hope that made even a little sense!
