Plastic faces, Anastasiya Pasyeka, 2020
No one is born insecure. As we grow we become more influenced by parents, peers and the media about what is beautiful.
When I heard the title its a plastic world I thought of plastic surgery and everyone's need for the perfect face and body. I’m interested in exploring psychological and social impacts of celebrities on younger and older audiences, I want to express it though light and shape and colour to emphasize what we find beautiful.
I want the viewer to see how the ideals of beauty are unrealistic, how many celebrities have had plastic surgeries and how unfair it is to compare yourself to them. I wanted to show some unrealistic expectations for young girls with plastic surgery, to create a “perfect” plastic look, and to challenge the question of is this real?
