Me Myself and Oh… Me Again

In Me Myself and Oh… Me Again, Justin Alsedek turns the act of self-portraiture into a layered exploration of identity, repetition, and self-observation. The artist depicts himself mid-process, surrounded by personal artifacts—paint, instruments, books, and objects of daily life—each acting as a fragment of lived experience. The fractured portrait within the painting mirrors the way identity is constructed: never singular, always shifting between reflection, memory, and perception. By placing the artist both inside and outside the image, the work blurs the line between creator and subject, asking whether the self is something we define, perform, or endlessly reinterpret.
