Yesterday I mentioned the work of John Coplans. He did a series of photos (that I admired) showing his aging body. I thought that I would explore a similar project through my series of self portraits. However, there are some differences that may make this impossible. First, photography, although not strictly objective, is more objective than sketching. Photography is more suited to objectively document an aging body than is sketching. Sketching arguably, is better able to portray (if not document) feelings than photography. I need to think more about where to take this project from here.
