The most complete PORTRAIT possible
This research is about the notion of a visible identity. What are ways to make the most complete portrait possible? When is a portrait valid,genuine and authentic? How can you make the invisible parts of anatomy visible? Let's say with an MRI or X-Ray hospitals can make photos of the invisible. Or words are words also valuable when you describe a person?
But people are also fluid and ever-changing so maybe still figurative images wouldn't be a wise choice. Unless they would be able to say something more then the first-hand impression.
Before I had questions about the meaning of reality but this has grown into more specific questions. The questions I have now are more clearly focused on humanity I guess. Maybe this reality is now more translated into concepts of authenticity and genuineness. So when is an image humanized or dehumanized?
Important quotation from Steve's class: Maybe it's not about realities, but about different levels of abstraction.
