Expressive Self Portrait: Life in Water


For as long as I can remember, I've spent most of my time in or around the water. This is always through swim team, water polo, or working as a lifeguard. Because this is such a significant part of my life, I decided to show how all my aquatic activities fit together by putting on different articles of clothing and accessories that go with each activity. I think it accurately represents the kind of mismatched way all of these pastimes go together, and my facial expressions convey how I often feel about having all of these activities: frazzled, and at times annoyed, but always genuinely happy about spending my time doing them. I don't know where I would be if I didn't feel at home in the water, and it's the way that all my aquatic activities perfectly fit together that make me feel that way.
