Subject, Viewer, Object.
This shoot was suggested by a fellow Red Shoe follower. And the idea was about the reflective self and what we see when we view ourselves this way.
And this was an incredibly odd experience. Let me explain why…
I am viewing myself as a reflection in the iPhone screen to take the selfie, and within that I can see my second reflection in the mirror. So I am posing myself for the iPhone and also looking at how that pose looks in the reflection in the mirror. And it was like this weird detachment from the self happening during the course of the shoot… it was surreal.
And made me think about how we as humans can detach from the self when taking selfie’s. What happens when we view ourselves as the third person?
I’m happy to say I talked my way through this and survived this surreal experience unmarked…
