Conceptual nominee

This work belongs to my ongoing project called "The Art Of Reflection" whose name is derived from the book with the very same title by Marsha Meskimmon. I wish to experiment with all kind of surfaces to reflect my "selves".

"Deconstruction Of Self" is an attempt to apply linguistic theories of cohesion in text (meronymy), and a form of philosophical and literary analysis (deconstruction) to question the fundamental meaning of human body. As a linguist and self-portrait artist myself, I am on a constant self-discovery journey.

Angelika Ejtel (alias RapidHeartMovement) is a Polish self-portrait artist based in the United States. Her photographic work is inspired by the poetry of a famous Polish poet-H.Poswiatowska. Angelika’s photographs have been featured in literary publications (such as “Dead Bop City”,“Palaver” or “Watershed Review”) and exhibitions throughout the country as well as internationally.
