Project 3


In this project my group choice to create a piece that spoke to us all as women. We wanted to create a safe space for each other, a space of support. We wanted to replicate the safety of a women's bathroom through the use of the imaginary mirror. We also played feminist songs and speeches to create a safety in numbers. It also allowed us to pinpoint when we would rotate around the table where our makeup was set. We needed each other to create a look that we wanted from our makeup. We were using each other as a resource and support to create makeup looks. 

This projected was successful in that it was done for us and the audience didn't matter. However as an outside piece there was a lot of learning to be done post. We could have cleaned it up a lot more and focus our themes more making them more apparent. Being beautiful doesn't have to shameful, it can be a voice of self love, which is something a lot of women I know struggle with. The message we wanted to make was supporting the women around you to love themselves. Makeup was just a vehicle for self love and self care.
