Overview

Self-perception is not a fixed or fully accessible truth, but a constructed and constantly shifting interpretation shaped by memory, social context, and external reflection. “Who You Think You Are” examines the instability of identity, revealing how individuals rely on fragmented, outdated, and context-dependent versions of themselves to form a sense of self. The project presents identity as an ongoing process rather than a singular or complete state of being through editorial layouts.
