Katy Creese

Summary
Final work

My practice is mainly focused on film and photography, exploring themes of femininity, identity, and girlhood. My work focuses on everyday moments, personal stories, and cultural phenomena. I’m interested in the ways society and visual media shape how we understand who we are. Through my work, I try to create honest, thoughtful representations of female experiences by using both real and imagined scenes to reflect on personal memory, self-expression, and culture.

The project "Legs For Days" (2025) is in response to the over- sexualization of women's bodies within media and culture. Drawing inspiration from the the subtle yet exhausted ways in which the film industry uses women’s bodies in order to sell, or promote films, in particular this work draws from the use women’s legs in movie posters, a repeated pattern which once noticed is hard to unsee. The film "Girls Do Just Wanna Have Fun" is intented to reclaim this imagery, by creating a lighthearted and joyful response.
