This film is about being told that you have to look a certain way to gain any form of "success".
This piece is an comment on identity.
To show this idea I drew on myself with a black permanent marker. I first outline my own skeletal structure (which is symbolic of being told to lose/ gain weight). I then outline my facial features (which is symbolic of cosmetic surgery and alteration to identity).
I chose to use a black pen as I believe that fame is as dark as the shadows it hides behind. Meaning that it's damaging nature is always hidden to the public until it is too late.
