Daily Self Portraits: 4 Aug - 3 Nov 2007 by RachelCreative

The second collection of 3 months of daily self portraits taken as part of a year long project. This video goes from 4 August to 3 November 2007.

The aim is to approach the project and learn from it artistically. A photograph self portrait must be taken every day by my hand only (no-one else can press the shutter button for me) and include me (body/face) in the picture. The photographs are shown chronologically.

Is it art? Is it a diary? Is it a document of how CFS/ME/CFIDS effects a life? Is it a personal look into the slow process of accepting my chronic illness? I think it's all of these.

Photographs are part of my Flickr stream http://www.flickr.com/rachelcreative

Progress of this project also features on my blog http://rachelcreative.wordpress.com

The music used on this video is from Regina Spektor with a song called Better". If you like this song buy her unique and wonderful album "Begin to Hope".
