Final major project: 4 final reworked images and final short movie including reworked mannequin with subject specific details.

These final images are to represent the idea of body positivity, specifically stretch marks. I aimed to show off the body with the models feeling comfortable and confident, appreciating their body’s and parts of their body’s seen as ‘imperfections’ in the Modern day.
I wanted to portray that stretch marks are a form of a beauty and show a Journey through life much like a map with all the fine lines and tracks in the skin.
The mannequin that has been bulked up to a more ‘average body type’ has been layered with dissolvable fabric that creates an illusion of lines on the mannequin representing stretch marks and their beauty. Body positive and magazines supporting stretch marks have been included on the mannequin as a ‘second skin’.
