BARBIECORE Series: A captivating exploration of beauty, identity, and empowerment inspired by Pat McGrath's surreal makeup artistry and the whimsical world of Barbie.
Sara is portrayed as the epitome of doll-like perfection, residing in her idyllic pink world. However, when she ventures into the harsh realities of the real world, she is confronted with a stark contrast to her fantasy realm - a world plagued by conflict, environmental degradation, disease, poverty, and societal disillusionment. As Sara grapples with the dissonance between her perfect world and the harsh truths of reality, she undergoes a metamorphosis. With each photograph, Sara's transformation unfolds, symbolizing her journey toward self-discovery and empowerment. Rejecting the narrow confines of conventional beauty and femininity, she embraces her true self without reservation or apology.
Through the lens of the BARBIECORE series, viewers are invited to consider the complexities of identity, beauty standards, and the power of self-expression in a world that often seeks to limit and define us.
