The ‘Iconic’ project is a series of photographs, which aims to subvert the current obsession with physical perfection. This will be done through the recreation of a series of iconic photographic portraits of the past 100 years, featuring people with diverse bodies.
The project aims to break down stereotypes, which have been created through the inaccuracies of how different body types are usually portrayed. The focus instead will be on what is shared – a small bodily difference becomes less noticeable when everything else is in common. What we have most in common is our humanity.
I’m currently seeking promotion and funding to continue this project. Please contact me for a press release and budget plan.
