Cecelia Kane’s piece, How Am I Feeling Today?, originated from the idea of Facebook’s status updates, How Am I Feeling Today? To which Kane responded by taking 89 photographs, one a day, these photographs expressed an array of emotions which provoked her friends to ensure she was okay, due to the nature of her photographs being deemed ‘unflattering.’ Kane’s project looks at the construction of identity on Facebook, and the questions of how representative of the real you is your virtual identity?
