The beauty of imperfections

This work vindicates the diversity of bodies and challenges traditional notions of imperfection. Its elements take as a starting point two cosmetic containers purchased in Asia. Nevertheless, by extracting the graphic information, the shapes are no longer distinctive of a specific place. Metaphorically, this act evokes the universal desire to satisfy beauty expectations. The initial shapes are combined to construct a new imaginary that emphasizes their aesthetic qualities, distinct from their origins as functional containers. Through alterations during the creative process, certain “imperfections” are incorporated, symbolizing the external pressures and influences that shape our perceptions of beauty.
