This mixed-media in-progress series, It’s Not For You, explores themes of the female form and the "expectations and power" that come with it. Specifically, accessories, actions, and stylistic choices that make women feel confident and beautiful, which initiate a sense of power and command, while from the viewpoint of the gaze, these accessories are worn purely to attract rather than for oneself.
