Special task, "Light and shadow"
This year's special task is about the concepts of light and shadow. You need a light source (natural or artificial) and will work with the shadowing effect provided by one or more optional objects. We want you to create a self-portrait using these elements – light and shadow. It is free to use whatever materials you have at home (or from nature) as long as the shadow image forms a portrait. You can then photograph this portrait or depict it with a drawing/painting if you so wish.

We also want you to write a short report (max. 225 words) about how you came up with the idea and how you went about the manufacturing process.
