Experiment in identity



An experiment in identity. Inspired by Cindy Sherman's photographic series called 'Untitled Film Stills' in which Sherman attempts to create scenes from imaginary films with varying female stereotyped roles which Sherman herself poses for. In fact Sherman retains control of the whole project undertaking varying roles at every level of the production such as camera person, make up artist, scenic artist, etc behind the camera as well as appearing in front of it as the model.
