This piece is a collection of 9273 photographs taken from Instagram, with the hashtag #selfie. It aims to create a selfie mirror, where the audience can engage and their image reflected through many other selfies, and thus, creates a new selfie. The purpose of the piece is to show a fragmented and fluid representation of the self, rather than a static and fixed one, such as a photograph.
