Artworks about "Social Media: The Lie of Perfection".
These pieces explore how the manipulation of content perpetuates an illusion of perfection, contributing to mental health struggles and body image issues.
๐ The happy mask represents the fake always positive image that is often portrayed online, which is here juxtaposed to a vulnerable anxious reality under the mask.
๐ฏ The target symbolizes how, when we "blindly" engage with social media platforms, we place ourselves in the crosshairs of judgment, beauty standards, materialism, social stigma, corporate policies, and more.
