Paper Summary:

The paper discusses that the nature of the representation of identity in visual culture is, it may be argued, dependent upon the characteristics of the media culture within which the identity is being represented. For example, the representation of identity within a medium that is integrated within the saturated mass media culture of our contemporary globalized world necessarily implies not simply the reflection of an identity but, in effect, its construction on a culture-wide scale. The paper explains that in other words, the range and penetrative depth of a visual medium within a culture impacts - to an extraordinary degree - the construction of an identity within that culture."
