How does this represent my idenitiy?
This represents my identity by I provided pictures of things that have shaped my life and made me become who I am today. I would have liked to added photos of the ones I brought to class. I believe those showed my true identity because most of them I was in but the pictures I chose in class today represent those factors which contribute to my identity. The picture of the couple holding hands with the heart drawn on them represents my past relationships, they have taught me so much and made me wiser in choosing the qualities I look for in a boy. Another picture was a family sitting down at a table which also connects to the two sisters holding hands on the beach. My family has made a huge impact on who I am today. Theres also a picture of a girl celebrating after a win of a basketball game. I use to play basketball and I still love the sport. The movie the Notebook has made me a helpless romantic and I dream of having the relationship they had in the movie. My job has definatly made me who I am today. I've had four jobs so far and I make sure I work hard and do what is expected of me.
What are the links between images and identity in our society? (What types of images do I identify with?)
Photos describe who we are and is in a way like a timeline of our life. We see photos of us when we are babies all the way up till our current age. As we look at photos they describe our growth and what we have become over the years. Some photos that are shown in my collage represent things that I have been through. As we walk through the streets, see on the television, or even in things we read, our society is constantly telling us what is beautiful, strong, intelligent, hard-working, most of the time it is all illustrated through pictures.
