Body Beautiful

This piece celebrates all the nuances of our bodies including scars, stretch marks, sagging, curves, and amputated limbs or amelia in an effort to combat body dysmorphia. Flashing and pits from the glass casting process are deliberately left exposed and are illuminated by light. Each person is unique and our so-called flaws tell the story of our lives. I hope this piece helps empower people to be happy with who they are. Our bodies are the ultimate form of self-expression.
