ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Social media evidently has its positive uses, but unfortunately it has also become a toxic ideological mirror. As the years progress, girls are getting younger and younger as they are presented with an idealized perception of beauty, being subjected to images of the ‘perfect body’ on a daily basis through all forms of social media. It has become an inescapable form of torture, constantly comparing yourself to another woman. My Skin campaign is a movement implemented to "inspire women the world over to love themselves, for themselves, to embrace your flaws, and not to strive for what the world perceives as perfection. Because f*ck perfection, it doesn't exist. I am making a pledge to never retouch my models' perfect 'imperfections’ out”
