A Motion on Masculinity

LEVEL 3 EXTENDED DIPLOMA IN CREATIVE PRACTICE (PHOTOGRAPHY)

In this project I am hoping to create work that is about a crisis of masculinity and how it affects one’s identity and their wellbeing. This masculinity crisis is present in many men around the world and is the cause of them keeping emotions contained within themselves in fear of being ridiculed. According to the male stereotype, men are expected to grow up, become bread winners and be the rock for other people. This work explores a masculinity in crisis by incorporating the movement and dance of men as an urgent and expressive form of non-verbal communication.
