The I-Eye: The Multi Layered Identity

The I-Eye: The Multi Layered Identity is a practice-based research project exploring identity through layering, fragmentation and material reassembly. The works bring together painting, drawing, collage, image transfer, found photographs, personal images, fragments of text and traditional visual motifs.

​

Images are repeatedly overlaid, obscured, interrupted and reassembled. Faces, mirrors, patterns and fragmented forms appear and disappear across the works, creating a tension between concealment and disclosure. These material processes became a way of examining how different memories, cultural references and experiences can coexist within a single image without resolving into a fixed identity.

​

Across the project, layering and fragmentation function as both visual strategies and ways of thinking through identity as something constructed, shifting and continually renegotiated.
