this essay, I will be explaining John Locke’s case of the prince and the cobbler and Bernard Williams’s second description of the A-body person and the B-body person.

Frida Kahlo’s art was a tool to convey the woman she really saw. The self-portraits she created were not idealized or meant to be surreal, but an actual representation of her true self. This pure expression inspired my own work in many ways. My desire became to create something with duality, as many of her pieces have, and which expressed my sense of self as purely as possible.
