Abstrakt(y)
This paper addresses the photographic self-portrait as a genre which engages modalities of identity agency. In particular, the paper shows how in his self-portraits Lewis Carroll, one of the most accomplished nineteenth century photographers, tried to conceal his identity of a photographer, while in his extraordinary portraiture projects he laid claims to his multiple and, as yet, little known selves.
