Identity and Individuality

Over the past few months I have been thinking a lot about my identity and who I am, and accepting borderline personality disorder as a part of me, rather than thinking about it as a separate entity. There is peace in embracing it. However, part of the disorder is consistently not knowing who I am; not being able to identify individual parts of my personality as my own and as permanent. Deciding to do my photographic project based around the idea of identity and personas gives me a really solid basis for a project I'm not only passionate about but am living.

I think for this reason I will do a large series, however I am unsure as of yet how I am going to portray the unsteady ground I walk on. I just know that I want it to be a powerful message.
