Artist statement
Teenagers in the modern world are addicted
to social media and the internet, but who’s to blame them? They were born into
it. While this can be a good thing it also is has a negative side to teenagers
when it comes to body image, and growing up. Now at a touch of a button they
can learn and see anything. This means the coding and corruption of their young
minds is much easier.
Teenagers these days have created their own
language, that we to have influenced. They have to obey rules to social
networking sites changing the way they write and how they say things.
From these, we have access to things being shared, and advertisements, which are most often about celebrities, and how to “improve” your body. Both sexes are available to seeing this, yet girls are targeted a lot more, brainwashing them into a way of thinking.
My work is based on research around this
and how this influences these girls
into a way of changing who they are.
