Mom's Skin
This series aims to show the psychological states of identity, asking the viewer to recognize the multiple identifiers that arise when issues of gender, ethnicity, and class are present. Photography has portrayed women through objectification and categorization, serving social constructs for nationhood and identity; this work intends to change the narrative and the gaze through a female approach. Although the picture may originate from self-portraits, they intend to identify every woman witnessing, questioning the difference between the eye we control and the one that observes without consent and reflecting on today's continuing disallowance of women's gender-defining identity.
