College Camberwell College of Arts Course MA Fine Art: Printmaking Graduation year 2024 The artwork challenges societal standards of beauty by using matte aluminum as a medium, creating a striking contrast between the imagined perfection of the body and the blurred reflections of the audience. The figures, devoid of typical physiological features such as hair and sexual characteristics, are reduced to simplified, flat shapes with eyes to identify them as human. This reduction serves as a critique of beauty standards in external world, highlighting the absurdity of rigid body norms. The geometrically abstracted bodies, derived from lithographic prints, transition into a three-dimensional space, symbolizing how the images we receive from multiple sources are often modified and different from reality, contributing to disorders. The scattered, fragmented pieces suggest a deconstruction of these ideals, questioning the very essence of what is considered 'normal' or 'beautiful'. The visual tension invites viewers to reflect on their perceptions of beauty. Moreover, the use of matte aluminum introduces an element of reflection, albeit ambiguous, further inviting the audience to be part of the work. The reflective surface creates a distorted, fragmented silhouette, mirroring the fragmented nature of the 'perfect' beauty we perceive. The simplicity of the lines and shapes draws attention to the essential elements of the human figure, stripped of all superfluous details, emphasizing the universality of the critique. The absence of color also suggests a certain timelessness, indicating that these issues of beauty and body image transcend specific cultures and eras.
