The project serves as a personification of my artistic identity across various passions and disciplines, made up of photography aspects, fashion design and construction, with my experience modeling. Dual Exposure consists of two main components, a reversible garment and the mannequin. With the multiple mediums being used and exhibited in this piece, it encompasses the abilities and knowledge I have as an image maker.
On the reversible garment, the side with black fabric is covered with abstracted production equipment, to emphasize the hidden complexities of digital production. On the reverse side, white fabric is embellished with patchwork representing the fashion industry. Along with self portraits embedded within the patchwork, the series of images conveys a variety of self expressions which I replay in my personal style and when I am in front of the camera. The mannequin is covered in printed images of my skin, with exposed pieces of the plastic mannequin. The exposed plastic contributes to the process artist’s take through the evolution of their art and themselves as a person throughout their career and life. The objective is to create and exhibit a physical representation of my full rounded knowledge from both sides of the lens.
