Which is you, indeed? That is the question the entire series asks, over and over. And the answer, most likely, lies somewhere else.

Oh Ruth you one, no one and one hundred thousand as Pirandello said. You are all things to all peoople and none to yourself. How can you ever see the real other you, when she knows you are watching he in the mirror or through the lens ;-))K

but Ray, that's exactly the point...
which is me? how do we define ourselves? a "real" or "other" me is not a possible concept...

Good to see you smiling for the camera. But there again, that's the other you :)
Thanks for this series - it's improved my evening!

! Almost a pastiche of a 1930's/40's pastiche portrait. Obscenely hilarious!! K
