Artist Statement

This work explores the personal struggles alongside the subject of Body Dysmorphic disorder. A mental disorder, which seeks to explore physical flaws and defects in the appearance by the person themselves, these tend to go undetected by others.

Bodies are glamourized through social media daily and everybody admires to be the front page male or female.

The natural body of this project is distorted through the technique of scanning, exploring and taking the body beyond its recognizable self. The effect of this is to connect with the quickness of how the thoughts of your own body are taken away and placed into something inaccurate.
