Katherine, Ka Wun Chan an emerging designer and maker at University College Falmouth launches her first collection of mirrors (and masks) reflecting her exploration of contemporary body image.
Highly influenced by the current trend and culture of extreme dieting. Like many others, the artist struggles to live up to the perception of modern ideology. Through conversations with peers and information from medias, Katherine develops her interest on Body image. Those supermodels with ultra-slim figures and the artist’s own unpleasing experiences regarding her figure trigged the search of true beauty.
The mirrors are crafted using methods of laser cutting with wood combined with sandblasted calligraphy or figurative line drawings on mirrors.
Since we cannot fight against our nature to seek for beauty, then let’s face it! The mirrors are there to reassure the idea of ‘You are beautiful, just the way you are’ and help boost self-confidence.
Let’s celebrate our gorgeous figures!
Let’s enjoy being ourselves!
