Self portrait as a Machine

For out first assignment we are required to create a self portrait of ourselves using photomontage, portraying ourselves as a mechanical device. I have been trying to get ideas for what to do and with much thought, I am slowly beginning to picture what I want to create. Last week we were asked to picture ourselves as an animal in class but I could not picture myself as any animal. However I just chose the tiger because I like tigers. I like them for various reasons and from those reasons I searched for a deeper meaning to how i can relate to them. Tigers have bold patterns but camouflage to their surroundings. They are powerful but do not roam free in the open, they prefer to hide and stalk ther prey. In a way I can relate to this as I prefer to blend into my surroundings rather than feel vulnerble out in the open, yet I like to be bold and individual at the same time. This is the beginning of inspirations that shall become the best self portrait as machine ever!!!!!!!
