Open Grave

Photo - Open GraveThe Non-Conformity series represents an attack on the media and advertisers for their efforts to force us to conform to an increasingly unattainable ideal. It seeks to challenge the unrealistic images of the slim, beautiful, youthful and ever fashionable. With the destruction of this perfect image before them, I hope to persuade the viewer to take back their individuality and cry death to the monotony of the factory made Barbie clone.

Rather than our dignity, why not throw everything artificial into an open grave?
