2004 - self-portraits with clay - studio trials - Staffordshire university

While working at the "mourning" self-portraits and the trials for mask-making, I remembered these images, from university research, about 6 years ago ... It is very strange to be exploring a similar practice again, as I am going through the same kind of emotional states ...

The idea of protecting-repulsing was already there but I choose these portraits here for the sadness in the sight.
