Construct of Viewpoint is made up of photographic self portraits printed on various textiles in exploration of female presence, identity, and assertion. The works consider the process of integrating a female body into existing interwoven fabric, an action through which subject and object are intrinsically linked. This project considers historical usages of domestic fabric materials, preceding notions about feminine vanity, and the significance of female self portraiture as a chain between these concepts.
