thesis update

corpora

Often times the casing we live in is labeled, criticized, and packaged to look a way that meets the “ideal” in America. But what is this “ideal” that is so intensely pursued and gawked at? What does this mindset do to us on a deeper internal and physical level? Why aren’t we already this view of “perfect” the way we were born? My answer to this was to create work about celebrating bodies for the vast differences. We live in our bodies for the entirety of our lives and they bare all of our experiences. With each small detail we may see as flaws, there are actually stories behind them that allow us to share our human experiences with one another. We as a culture should be lifting each other up and recognizing that all of us are unique no matter where we come from or what consequences of life our bodies reflect.
