This self-portrait photography project was created while studying at Virginia Commonwealth University and reflects my early exploration of visual storytelling. Shot on location at the historic Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, Virginia an architectural landmark built in 1895 in the Beaux-Arts style. The series draws inspiration from the expressive world of silent cinema. Influenced by icons like Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, and Buster Keaton, the images evoke their signature visual language. Though their performances were silent, their emotions were vivid and I sought to echo through composition and gesture. The project blends photography with graphic design elements reminiscent of early 20th-century posters in Europe, creating a nostalgic yet personal homage to a formative era in performance and visual art.
