Project Description
This collage presents a mosaic of images sourced directly from Vouge magazines, each meticulously selected to illustrate the relentless beauty standards of women today. Incorporating authentic quotes and titles from the magazine, it serves as a reflection of the expectations perpetuated by the beauty industry. Intertwined with personal stories, it crafts a narrative that delves into my own journey with insecurities, alongside songs that echo the overarching message of challenging societal norms.
