Telfies
A playful publication exploring the ‘toilet selfie’ craze and the culture of Instagram which invites us to broadcast insignificant moments in our lives. Highlighting the toilet setting illustrates how apparently widespread this trend is for self-promotion and need to be noticed, in that it extends to the most intimate of environments. At the same time, the choice of toilet by participants perhaps shows their playfulness, causing us to look beyond the obvious interpretation and see the subjects as themselves understanding the absurdity of narcissism. Cropping the subjects reinforces this ambiguity by making the toilet the focus and the people anonymous.
