Understanding of signs and symbols allows visually to extract
meaning and create relationships through categorizing signs. According to Pierce there are three categories of signs :
icon (looks like;resembles, copies aspects)
index (indicates; implies through evidence points towards)
symbol (an arbitrary, learned association)
I will like to introduced myself through these three different categories and for a viewer to know more about me and my personality.
