Ultrabodies

"Ultrabodies" is a project about that apparent self-acceptance that is accomplished only when we end to become totally unrecognizable, even to ourselves. If, on one side, this project can be frivolous regarding its pure form, it is actually the rawest and most painful one on its message side. Behind those funny and cute faces, digitally manipulated and distorted until they became unrecognizable, you can find the weaknesses of a woman who is not able to accept herself as she is, as well as a society that craves for reaching beauty but loses its true meaning. Everyday I see over-manipulated images on the internet: soothed faces in a manner that skin pores are erased and so such surfaces resemble plastic, like dolls. Polymers dyed with airbrush.
