Identity to me can tell me many things about someone, if that’s myself to family/friends, to strangers. But what makes up a personal identity? Is it their possessions, or their personality. I think people first see peoples identity through what they are wearing, race, gender, age, class etc. But after talking to people, you would start to understand the person better.

But not all the time, you can define a person’s identity through their clothing, because they may be wearing uniforms from there jobs, where people will stereotype certain people. Them being in this uniform may not show their true identity or the way they express themselves through clothing, down to job rules.

This unit is fascinating because it’s so broad, I could do a lot of different ideas. Below I have created a first initial keywords & mood board of the theme identity.

KEYWORDS

Nationalism, Politics, class, Race, Family, Friends, Jobs, Stereotypes, Uniform, Hobbies, Past Times, Hunting, Gender, LGBT, Drag, Sexuality, Culture, Strangers, Sub-Cultures, The Self, Clothing, Makeup, Items
