Pensacola Christian College Selfies & Self Portraits Comparative Essay.
Question Description
The discourse on whether a selfie is the same as a self-portrait has been raging for several years. Why do you think there is even a discourse? Is it because of the accessibility? Is it because the possibility that the artist may not have been formally trained (in the traditional sense of art school)? What insights did the articles you read provide? How have the articles informed your response(s) to my questions?
