Performing the Uncanny: An Exploration of Self Through Alternative Process Photography

Acknowledgements Thank you to all of my professors at Scripps who have inspired me to keep asking questions and exploring the world. I am blessed to be surrounded by incredibly brilliant and kind mentors. To Susan Rankaitis and Ken Gonzales-Day, thank you for making all of this possible for me. I could not have done any of this without your constant support and guidance. It has been an absolute pleasure to spend the past two and a half years learning from both of you. I would like to thank my wonderful, loving family. To my parents, thank you for encouraging me to explore all life has to offer. Ben, Haydn and Kate, thank you for being the best siblings I could have asked for, it has been a pleasure to be your baby sister. I am incredibly grateful for all of my fabulous friends. To my Scripps ladies, you will never know how much your love and support have meant to me during my time here. I feel so blessed to have gotten to know each and every one of you. To my friends from home, thank you for all the long distance love. Finally, to my best friend, Alex, thank you for everything—all the late night FaceTime calls, for supporting all of my work and outlandish ideas, and for unconditionally loving me. Your friendship has shaped so much of who I am and I will never be able to fully explain to you how much you mean to me, so thank you.
