Perfect In "Imperfect"

Photography

Digital Photographs
This series focuses on women's body and address the question "Should we, as women, have to follow the perfect template of our body to make us fit into male gaze society?"

“This series discusses the parts of our bodies that are considered "imperfect" as women. Zooming in and discussing these imperfections is what I use to fight back against the ubiquitous male gaze in today's society and the female self-criticism of body anxiety. There is nothing more romantic about accepting our own bodies and loving her.”
