1st year at the Cleveland Institute of Art
"Concept for Plastic Surgery" - frontal view
"Concept for Plastic Surgery" - profile view
These images started my obsession with doing research before creating a photo. I looked through many medical references at a CWRU library until I found visual charts to replicate on my face (showing potential areas of improvement). This work was also in a response to learning about the artist Orlan, and how she takes the self portrait to a new unbelievable extreme. Orlan undergoes actual plastic surgery, transforming her own body into her medium....her canvas is her body parts!
