Crises of Portraiture

Crises of Portraiture explores the gap between being visible and being recognized as a person. Through experimental photography and digital manipulation, I fragment, distort, and obscure faces and bodies, making recognition uncertain.

The series questions how digital systems transform the human image into something measurable, comparable, and available for use. A face becomes a set of features, a body becomes information, and visibility becomes a form of value.

Across these interrupted portraits, human presence persists without becoming fully legible. I ask what remains of a person when their image is reduced to what can be identified, classified, or extracted, and whether a portrait can preserve a presence beyond these demands.
