It is all about perspective. How do you perceive yourself? How do people view you? Does your own view of yourself always clash with people's view of you or does it mirror each other?

2. Perspective
a particular attitude toward or way of
regarding something; a point of view.
a mental view or prospect.
Synonyms: prospect, viewpoint, point of
view, way of looking, outlook, frame of
mind.

3. Objective
 I wanted to understand the different view
points people had of themselves and what
generally others thought of them. Did their
perspective of themselves contradict with
what people thought of them or did they mirror
each other?

4. Process
I got cups (I also used the girls’ cups if they
had acquired a cup of coffee) and 2 markers
(one red “their perspective of themselves”
and one black “the people’s perspective of
them”).

5. Process
I asked them to write on different sides of
the cup the words and then asked them
why they thought (or wrote) these words.
I took pictures of their cup, my focus was
the words and not their faces or features.
