Vandy, you have a very interesting portfolio. I like this piece but agree with Nick that it would be better with a complete face. You CAN make it better - you have the power. Happy new year. John B
If the face weren't cut, Vandy, it would be a perfect image, but still it is a very very good work in its suggestive and modern content. Modern because of the repetitive appearance of the same face in many hues, and suggestive because of the direct painting of identity (the fingerprint) in the face.
It impresses me how it manages to ask: "Who am I?", or even more: "Do you know me?". After all alterations of the casing, the content remains the same: "Me". But what is that "Me"? One can define it only through the casing, but one also knows that this definition can only be very imperfect. Perhaps this is why you introduced the imperfectness by not leting the whole face appear on the picture? Is it that there can't be any perfect definition of identity?
