Retouch, Reform, Refit
Retouch, Reform, Refit deconstructs contemporary beauty standards and mechanics. Using myself as a subject, I did a thorough retouching of a studio self-portrait in Photoshop. Each image represents the changes to one layer of the Photoshop document, showing the distortions added to my own face to make it look more “beautiful.” This body of work lays bear the process of retouching and it’s the way it deforms facial features and skews our perception of beauty.
