Abstract: Through photography, film, and personal experience I learn to weave together a self-portrait of the slow, uncomfortable process of shedding my identity to transform into a new identity, Mother. This thesis is a puzzle in which the pieces are laid out across the white walls. The entire picture is still not clear, there is no box with the finished image that I can follow. It is a forever hunting, searching, endlessly analyzing the very need we have to be nurtured, and to nurture. Creating and staging images is the container in which I can collect the puzzle pieces to try and see clearly my new self.
