In this series, being aspired by Erving Goffman’s sociological theory, I have tried to depict the situations of social performances in which people struggle with the concept of self-presentation in their everyday interactions with public and private spaces. I have employed a narrative dramaturgical approach to photographs so that they stay in a gray area between staged and documentary. This approach, I believe, strengthens the duality of awareness of being watched by the camera against the unawareness of self-representation, or as Goffman says, in the Backstage, where individuals think no audience is present.
