There are many women in contemporary society who have appearance anxiety and body anxiety, such as the need for nail art, hair, and makeup, in an effort to conform to popular standards.
I wanted to demonstrate this stereotype through the project of this assignment. I still wanted to express that women can ignore these seemingly standard criteria and express their own beauty and identity.
For example, I wanted to use the sculpture of a woman wrapped in a ribbon to express all kinds of standards bind that contemporary women, I tried to use some makeup, lipsticks, and perfume to symbolize these criteria. But at the same time, I think it is much more important for us to show our own female identity and beauty. So that I want to use a fairy wand firework to symbolize that.
To make the two photos more related, I wanted to use the sculpture as the visual center and use Photoshop’s keying technique to superimpose other cosmetics around it. Then I tried to use the shape of the fireworks as a base and place a female figure looking up at the fireworks at the top of the photo.
I would like to use different color palettes for visual impacts, such as pink and blue, but I would choose a low-saturation color palette to make them look more harmonious.
