Woman Photographs Herself Receiving Strange Looks in Public

“I now reverse the gaze and record their reactions to me while I perform mundane tasks in public spaces. I seek out spaces that are visually interesting and geographically diverse. I try to place myself in compositions that contain feminine icons or advertisements. Otherwise, I position myself and the camera in a pool of people…and wait.

The images capture the gazer in a microsecond moment where they, for unknowable reasons, have a look on their face that questions my presence. Whether they are questioning my position in front of the lens or questioning my body size, the gazer appears to be visually troubled that I am in front of them.”

Thought this was actually really cool and I’d share it with you guys! Takes a lot to get up there and do something like this. Love it!

this is such a fucking important project to me because i am constantly stared at in public in a negative way and turned into some disgusting object for the amusement of others and this is a peaceful way to confront those people

she’s one of the professors at my college, and I have so much respect for her. She’s a really chill person.

so about that whole thin privilege thing

They make me want to write our engagements vaguely on a blog I hardly use.

I shaved my head for an art project - my sister took photos of me shaving my head for her art project to discuss coping mechanisms of mental illness and the concept of femininity, it’s always been somewhat of a personal ritual to shave my head when I’m not feeling good about myself in order to force myself to love myself and feel pretty even without hair, hair =/= femininity and I think it’s important to remember that and to remind myself of that. I think every woman should shave her head at least once as an exercise in self love, empowerment and liberation from gender roles.
