“After sharing on social media, the impact was surprising. It compelled me to continue my work on the body and fight against the aesthetic pressures women are subjected to.”

“My intention is to take everything that [others] have made us believe are defects, imperfections, things that don’t make us ‘beautiful’, and show that it’s there and real. Personally, the concept of imperfections in our bodies is something that I don’t understand; Imperfect to whom?”

“All of our bodies have marks, freckles, stretch marks, cellulite, hair, creases, and there are bodies that menstruate,” she says. “It’s a reality. Why hide it? We spend our lives hating our bodies, having conflicts with ourselves. It’s time to be able to work together to fight against this aesthetic pressure and begin to learn that everything we have is part of us, of our stories.”
