Women have long been objects in the history of ideas and culture. Their beauty is endlessly described, endlessly evaluated, but rarely asked what it costs the person who carries it.
This work turns that gaze inward. It reveals how beauty can dehumanise the one who possesses it, laying bare the dangers, distortions, stigmas, jealousies and fears that follow a woman deemed beautiful by others.
Women say:
Why don't you throw acid on your face if beauty troubles you ?
Men say:
Why scared? How special do you think your hole is?
