'My Mummy Says...'

Recently I've been working on a print series, in response to and surrounding a specific topic. I looked into this idea of how the ideal femininity today is subject to the obsessive nature in which women observe themselves, whilst paradoxically questioning this idea of beauty. The focus of my image making has been, to poke fun at the stereotyping of genders in order to take the pressure off for women, encouraging them to relax a little more about how they look. 

This image was inspired through conversations I had with young girls living on my street and their ideas of putting a definition on the word 'beautiful'. The quote in this print is what one girl happened to answer with.

The image is A3 size and is screen printed by me onto a lightweight paper/card. It is a 3 colour separation.

I also have it with two other colour variations... Please message me if you are interested.
