Based on my research into altered perception disorders, I have based my project on schizophrenia.  Schizophrenia is characterized by several symptoms, including hallucinations, paranoia, hearing voices, psychotic behavior, and often thoughts of suicide.  I’ve created and titled these photos to convey what schizophrenia is like, and how it alters one’s perceptions.

“split from reality”

“paranoia”

“everyone hates you”

“contemplation”
