Move out, seflies! The latest trend of self-portraits are offiiiiiicially in! ;) This is seriously too cool, though; to think that the red is thread and is hand-applied...bravi, honestly!

The use of thread on your face makes it look a warped muscular structure of the face-I love the originality of thought, the quality looks proffessional as well!

I love this so so much! Before I saw it close up I thought the thread was the muscles of the face, altered in some way. It must have been so difficult to get the thread that way. The solumness of your face...the closed eyes...it's incredible!
