This work was a response to my class' art provocation "The Body as an Object of Scrutiny".  My aim was to depict one of the ways in which we are apt to scrutinize ourselves and how we look.  What I did was write several insults that I have thought about myself over the years, along with compliments I have used to reassure myself of my beauty; so I displayed both positive and negative scrutiny.  As for presentation, I framed these photographs and hung them on the gallery wall in three rows, four pictures in each row.  This was a bit of an emotional challenge for me, as I was bringing to light the ways I felt self-conscious about the way I look.  I was pleasantly surprised, though, to find that I thought up more compliments than insults for myself.  I think this may be a sign that my self-confidence is growing.
