AND WHAT AM I REALLY LIKE?
This series explores how social attitudes and external influences shape our identity, gradually obscuring our true selves beneath layers of expectations and stereotypes. Through abstract portraits created using analog deconstruction and digital reconstruction, I visualize the dynamics of loss and the search for authenticity.
The project addresses the viewer with the question: how can we maintain inner freedom in a world of imposed roles?
My works become a space for reflection, where, by encountering images of internal fragmentation, we can find the impetus to regain our integrity.

Plastification — registration of a photo under acrylic glass
Acrylic glass is of two types: glossy and matte anti-reflective glass
Glossy glass gives the image a shine, depth. To describe the plasticization under glossy glass without demonstration, we can use the following comparison. It is like taking a colored pebble on the beach and placing it under water — it will immediately become brighter.
Matte anti-reflective glass eliminates glare and makes it possible to place the plastification without being repelled by light sources. If we compare matte and gloss, a photo in glossy plastification is a pure photo, while in matte plastification it is more of an interior object. Photographs are printed on paper and then sealed mounted under acrylic glass. As a result, the image acquires additional depth and brightness, becomes protected from external influences.
Next, an aluminum profile is glued to the backdrop, which gives more rigidity and serves for mounting on the wall. There is also printing directly on the glass — this type of printing has a much smaller color gamut and worse transfer of details.
