Self Portrait

This self-portrait is drawn entirely from memory, depicting a woman with tired eyes, messy hair, and a distant expression. Rather than presenting an exact likeness of her outward appearance, the work reflects an internal state shaped by distraction, daydreaming, and the feeling of moving through everyday life without fully being present. The distant gaze and unpolished appearance become an outward representation of an inner world, exploring the disconnect between how a person appears and how they experience themselves internally. Through memory and personal interpretation, the figure becomes less a literal self-portrait and more a portrait of the mind.
