Fragility of the Self is a series by Chotvichai in which photographic self-portraits are transformed through cutting, folding, and draping the printed surface, blurring distinctions between photography and sculpture. Working with images of her own body, Chotvichai alters the photographic plane to examine vulnerability and identity, drawing on Buddhist concepts of impermanence.
