The piece explores the portrayal of oneself on social media, highlighting the disconnect between what is presented online and reality. It prompts us to question what happens behind the screen and camera, and how the image we see is often carefully curated to present a certain 'reality'. In other words, the grass is not always greener on the other side.

In this piece, I poke fun at my past self, who used to meticulously check the labels of food products to ensure that they matched my daily nutritional goals, which were part of a long-term goal of staying healthy and in shape. While this sounds good in theory, I became obsessed with it and went overboard. The piece aims to exaggerate the idea of self-obsessed behavior by creating a nutrition label for everything, just in case. Honestly, my favorite dish is the delicious kitchen roll!

	~~When technology serves us 'attentions' on a plate, it's quite hard to refuse it.

However~~, it's not ~~as simply as it sounds,~~ we ~~never talk about it out loud~~. ~~Why? Seeking for attention is considering a shame?~~ I created an interface ~~showing~~ the ~~interaction of~~ scrolling~~, infinite~~ checking ~~on the 'viewers' function on Instagram Story and put~~ this ~~interface on the iPad in the exhibition. Because, why not~~.		With Instagram's 'Story' feature, we can easily share images, videos, and news with others, while also seeing who has viewed our content. Despite the fact that many of us regularly check our 'viewers' list, it's not a topic we openly discuss. In my exhibition, I've created an interface on an iPad to showcase the obsessive scrolling and checking behavior that many of us have towards this feature.

	=='''the ~~exhibition~~'''==		=='''the event'''==

	~~'MASK // MIRROR // SHADOW’~~ took place on ~~3rd~~ September 2022 ~~from 18:00 - 22:00~~ at REDAH (Silbersteinstraße 133, 12051 ~~Berlin~~) ~~the exhibition aims to ironically communicate through the power of visualisation and perception of themselves~~. The ~~installation consists of 4~~ three-dimensional contemporary works of various materials ~~and medium. The~~ viewers ~~can experience as participation, relate~~ to their experiences ~~and posit themselves in an expanse that they not only observe but take part in~~.		An exhibition and theatrical performance that took place on September 3, 2022 at REDAH in Berlin (Silbersteinstraße 133, 12051). The exhibition features four three-dimensional contemporary works made of various materials, inviting the viewers to participate and reflect on their experiences. The theatrical performance is inspired by the Greek myth of Narcissus, exploring the concept of narcissism in a nuanced way. The use of ice as a modern interpretation of water adds an abstract and ironic logic to the installation and performance, allowing for an endless reflection of oneself. The performance aims to explore the multifaceted aspects of narcissism without judgment, creating a safe space for self-exploration and reflection."

	~~Apart from the installation there is a~~ theatrical performance inspired by the ~~greek methodology,~~ Narcissus~~. Guiding the audiences from the broken background of narcissists, to the transformation of self-esteem, then being overwhelmed by self absorption~~, the ~~lack~~ of ~~empathy to themselves and to others, and finally the drowning into one’s own reflection that harm one’s self~~.

	The ~~main material I want to~~ use ~~is ‘ice’,~~ as a modern interpretation of ‘water’ which is the core material in ‘Narcissus’ methodology. To add my idea into the original material, I use the logic behind the narcissistic way of thinking: the exaggerated desire to be loved, admired and to have the support of others. As water ~~has been used as a self-reflector or mirror in ‘Narcissus’. The~~ abstract and ironic logic ~~behind ‘ice’ is~~ to ~~maintain that feeling of seeing oneself in the reflection forever as it is~~ the endless reflection ~~and absorption~~ of oneself.

	~~Therefore ‘ice’ has been use in this project as a main medium in the installation, performance and the making of sound~~. The sound we used in the performance had been recorded on the day from the ice on the stage along with other materials I use in the installation works. Purposely, we wanted to make it as live as possible in order to create a fresh energy and allow audiences to take part in the show as much as we can.

	The performance aims to ~~non-verbally define~~ the ~~terms of narcissism in~~ multifaceted aspects ~~and include the beauty and the beast~~ of ~~narcissistic traits. Even though, it does not indicate towards what is good and bad~~, ~~as there is nothing as such but to create~~ a safe space ~~where we can equally explore ourselves~~ and ~~our complex minds. It purposely wants to seduce, embrace, stimulate and tickle the narcissist in all of us~~.

	=='''about the project'''==		=='''about the project'''==

	~~‘MASK~~ // MIRROR // ~~SHADOW’ questions and examines our minds,~~ thoughts~~, behaviours that impact ourselves~~ and ~~other human beings in the~~ society. ~~With~~ the ~~use of 3~~ simple words ~~that can be interpreted differently based on an individual's background. The interdisciplinary work that runs across psychology and art fields aims to challenge~~ the ~~viewers’~~ perception of ~~themselves~~ and ~~their own invented realities by allowing them to interact with the work, contribute themselves as an instrumental of it and also reflect on themselves through the performance~~. ~~I have an itch to talk about this mental condition and communicate it through art, to~~ project ~~the idea~~ of ~~NPD in both positive and negative areas. As we all know~~ that we all ~~fall somewhere along the~~ narcissism ~~kingdom and somehow we are both a narcissist and a victim at the same time~~. ~~The project~~ does not aim to ~~labels~~ or ~~victimise anyone~~, but ~~to engage all~~ of us to ~~the field of self-reflection~~ and ~~self-awareness~~.		Through an interdisciplinary approach, "MASK // MIRROR // SHADOW" encourages the audience to examine the impact of their thoughts and behaviors on society. By exploring the meaning behind three simple words, the performance challenges our perception of reality and invites self-reflection. The project presents a nuanced view of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, acknowledging that we all possess some degree of narcissism. However, it does not aim to label or victimize individuals, but instead promotes self-awareness and a deeper exploration of the mind and behavior. "MASK // MIRROR // SHADOW" prompts questions that promote empathy and consciousness, encouraging us to examine our own behaviors and perceptions.

			=='''abstract'''==

			Narcissism has become a modern epidemic, spreading due to societal changes and technology. It can have both positive and negative effects on an individual's sense of self. However, at a high level or in the state of NPD (narcissistic personality disorder), it can cause destructive harm to others and oneself. This project explores the concept of narcissism in relation to environmental crises and trauma in early life. While humans are products of their society and family, narcissism is a complex issue heavily involved in modern society.
