Understanding Myself Through Friends A Self Portrait Series

I have never been good at writing artist statements about my works in progress so this might not even be close to one.

The following photos in the next couple of weeks are Self Portraits you can say i guess,they focus on more of my personalities and body language that come off of me. So I figure to see it completely i needed to use others to help me understand myself. In these photographs I have asked my close friend some like family, to act and portray themselves as me, even to ware some of my clothes.I have them sit back and study a pose that i position myself first i have them focus themselves on my facial expression,body language to help my feelings show through them making the photos more of a self portrait then a portrait of them.This concept is still something im trying to understand a little bit myself so my artist statement might even change as i move along with this project.

here are the first two of project i have completed.
