" Liminal Portraits, chronicles my investigation into the teenage world of social networks and iChatting. Adolescence is a particularly transitional time in life, a time when teens are experimenting with and forming their identity. And with today’s wired kids, they have the opportunity to create virtual identities – every time they log on to a computer. "

My work will be a lot about racism and appearances. Racist comments often occur in social networking sites, mostly facebook.
Also, I could use my facebook page to distribute my photographs to a larger audience then otherwise possible.
