Project 3 proposal

The topic of project 3 is “The Self Portrait”, which is a topic existed for decades. For part one of the project, we will take a self-portrait with some part our appearance. This one is kind of simple because we can express ourselves via photo with our appearance. So I will concentrate on part of my face combine with the background environment. However, the second part of the project is tricky with the vague requirement “self-portrait without self-appearance”. This part is more like artwork other than photography. For this part I will concentrate on my daily life interests and life style. At the same time, I will try to include my culture background into this self-portrait. Before I decide the details about how to express my self-portrait, I will look at the history of the self-portrait and browse some of the well-known self-portrait artwork in order to gain knowledge in this area.
