Project Statement
My project is based on the word "play".
I started out focusing my project on how play is related to body image and body confidence, and how society views it.
I felt I was running into a dead end with it, so I decided to explore my options by referring to the mind-map i created with my peer group at the start of the project.
I then decided to branch out to play through self expression and identity through makeup, fashion etc and focused on the makeup aspect of it, as I can directly relate.
Through this, I'm exploring play through self portraits, and I'm currently playing around with merging self portraits of me with makeup vs self portraits of me without.
Personally, using makeup allows me to both gain confidence and express myself at the same time, and I'm attempting to analyse how i feel in makeup and without, so i can project it into my sketchbook.
