Here is his self-portrait :
First step, sketches to prepare our own self-portrait sculptures
Next, we drew our self-portrait sketches on a canvas
Now we separate the plastic objects according to color as Cragg did in his work "New Stones - Newton's Tones", 1978
Then, everyone picks the objects that best "represent" them
Next, we glue the objects onto the canvas
A group effort...
