The tyranny of beauty investigates how mass media imposes narrow ideals of female beauty. The constant push to ‘perfect’ the body reduces women to passive objects, with celebrities used to reinforce the norm. To challenge this, I photographed everyday women as magazine covers.

The work was exhibited in London at Stolen Space Gallery (Truman Brewery), Apricot Gallery (Rag Factory), and St Margaret’s House.

La pressione a ‘perfezionare’ il corpo femminile riduce le donne a oggetti passivi, e i VIP vengono usati per rafforzare questo ideale. Per mettere in discussione questo modello, ho portato volti comuni sulle copertine patinate delle riviste di moda.

La serie è stata esposta a Londra presso Truman Brewery, Apricot Gallery (Rag Factory) e St Margaret’s House.
