I Am Skin
In this study, I was asked to think about the relationship between skin and emotions, how emotional and psychological factors can be seen on the skin: glowing when we are in love, blushing when we are embarrassed, goosebumps when we are frightened. This hit close for me as the changes in my perimenopausal body have recently been showing up in my skin with crazy episodes of itchiness that I had never experienced before. Funny how our skin tells us so much. These images were captured as a study of what defines my body and how I would identify my skin if I had lost it.
