Self-Regard (Bathroom Selfie Triptych)

A bold three-panel exploration of narcissism and self-commodification, this piece confronts the viewer with the uncomfortable reality of the selfie as both performance and plea. The bathroom mirror—intimate, private, yet infinitely shareable—becomes the stage for a one-person show with an audience of thousands. The work interrogates: if vulnerability is performed, is it still authentic? If intimacy is broadcast, does it cease to be intimate? These questions remain unanswered, much like the DMs that inspired this series.
