PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A HOME PAGE

PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A HOME PAGE



"Portrait of the Artist as a Home Page" examines the easy narcissism of the internet. Using myriad personal homepages as its source material, "Portrait..." can be thought of as a documentary of the home page genre. Text colors, background images, and most importantly the images themselves are all culled from actual home pages and websites. These multiple portraits illuminate and reconstruct self-presentation on the internet.
