Tatiana for Self Portrait UK (2002)
Tatiana wanted to create an image that summed up her
feelings about being a young unaccompanied refugee. She wanted her self-portrait to
say lots of different things about her life and to convey a strong sense of her own situation
and identity.
To make her self-portrait, Tatiana used a disposable camera
to photograph a day in her life. At different times of the day she took a photograph from
her own point of view of the places she went to and the people she met. She then created a photo-collage by fixing the images to a piece of paper, along with the following text: ‘This is me. It's all I’ve got, how far do you think I will
get?’
Tatiana’s collage was then scanned and submitted
to Self Portrait UK as a digital image. |
