"Vom Finden des eigenen Ichs" (engl. "About Finding My Self") is the title of my final bachelor project which revolves around identity – especially my own. Over the course of several months all I could think about was finding an answer to the question who I really was, learning a lot about the topic identity in general and working out a concept on how to visualise the process of "finding my self" or rather searching for it.
I then decided to do three self portrait photo series, each of them representing one "pillar" of my identity (based on H.G. Petzold's "Five Pillars of Identity"): my home, my memories and my relationships (myself – myself & myself – others).
In a final step I collected all the photos along with texts and diary entries in a journal.
the three photo series more in detail:
