Fragments of a Face

LEVEL 3 EXTENDED DIPLOMA IN CREATIVE PRACTICE (PHOTOGRAPHY)

This project explores the idea of today's social standards and the pressures of the accepted norms in society. It is shown how inner insecurities can affect someone's self-perception and how distorted self-image is very common due to things like social media and comparing ourselves to others.

The weaving technique used reflects how easy it is for us to hide behind a mask whilst everyone’s natural beauty has the potential to be unravelled and embraced, so throughout this project the highlighted message is that it is normalised for people to be hiding behind a mask due to insecurities taking over which causes people to forget embracing their natural beauty.
