Elysse Caballero is inspired by social media to create her self-portraits and experiment with different looks and backgrounds. The contrasts between her two photographs, one depicting her face embellished with glitter and the other bare, highlight the duality of her personality. Visually they portray the multiple sides of a person we find in reality and online, questioning if they are mutually exclusive, or not.
