I really appreciate Collin J Rae taking all these artsy pandemic portrait photos of me.
I usually don't really like looking at myself all that much (other than to see what I look like), but with these warped creations, I can look at myself from all these different angles and lenses and weird shapes and sizes and colors and hybrid creature-ization that makes it feel way more interesting. Kind of like visual poetry and open to various interpretations.
Sometime in the next few days, I need to download the rest of my August photos off my own camera and phone and I'll probably have more of my own selfies on there. I don't remember what's on there; I'll see when I download it. All I remember is a few sock photos, a few black flower photos (before it dies), and trying to zoom in and make my thigh look triple it's actual size so that I look like I have a small head with the legs of a grotesque giant..
Maybe I took some more poetry chapbook photos too.
