Self Portrait

I created this mosaic of myself using tiny pieces of paper I cut from magazines and then glueing them onto poster board.

I modeled my mosaic after a picture I took of myself a few years ago. So, my self-portrait was actually a self-portrait of a self-portrait.

This represents me because it is based from an actual picture of me. It also represents me because because I decided every aspect of both the photo and the mosaic. In the picture I decided what to wear, where to look, what angle to hold the camera. While creating the mosaic, I decided what colors to use to recreate the photograph, where the pieces of paper should be placed, How big I wanted my image to be. I decided every element, which makes the entirity of the project represent me.
