Description:
Detail (photographed with reflections in the exhibition). Photographer's statement: "Beauty and perfection is admired and mostly attributed to certain cultures. I have explored the ideas women have about beauty and how these have been affected by the advertising industry. Looking further into what women feel about themselves and how they would change who they are to be 'beautiful'. Within my work I have been looking into the creative side of beauty photography, revealing that every woman can be beautiful. I have shown this by choosing a diverse range of looks within the 'models'. I have specifically chosen not to use professional models to back up this idea. Creating unusual appearances for the models to counteract the superficial idea that beauty should only be one stereotype, but rather several."
