Body Alphabet

This stemed from a student project titled 'Self Portrait', where we asked to somehow express the essence of ourselves visually.

I felt that both ones name and ones human physical form are direct pointers of ones identity, so I wanted to use my body to spell out my name. From initial experimentation, I was inspired to developed the full alphabet 'written' entirely by myself.
 
 
Some letters were much harder than I anticipated and I would make a few improvements if I had the chance to do it again. The execution wasn't as perfect as I like [it was done  in the spare room at home, on a wooden trestle table, covered solely by a sheet, and lit by two bedside lamps!]. However, in the end I managed to complete all 26 letters fairly successfully (if I may say so myself)
 
Here are close ups of a few of my favourites:
