Self Study by Natalie Nazanin Abbassi, was the photographer’s final project as a student at the University of North Carolina’s Design and Visual Communication program. It’s a fascinating series of self-portraits that explores who she is as both an American and Iranian woman. In each composite image, Natalie captures herself twice, once as the Iranian and once as the American.

Enjoy this small sample below and be sure to visit Natlie’s official site to see the rest of this wonderful exploration.
