Abstract

This essay explores the changes that I experienced as an artist over a period of time – the time when I moved from Iceland to Vancouver to join a Master of Applied Arts program at Emily Carr Institute to the middle of my last semester at the school. I use reflexive writing, specifically autoethnography, to ask the following questions: who am I as a photographer? And what does it mean to be an artist? It is through the process of writing that I experienced a significant shift in my practice. This paper is organized into seven sections, each a representation of those shifts as they relate to insights into myself and my research.
