We continue to focus on the female experience, the web of contradictions it still carries, and the persistence of cultural legacy. Serving as both an obstacle and a tool, and almost always as a prejudice, a woman’s body precedes her. We are forced to reckon with our own bodies, negotiating between necessity and desires. This is where we started, moved by the doubt that in the way she appears—and therefore exists and lives—a woman is first and foremost a mouth, two legs, her glutes… chasing an ideal that leaves her feeling like a collection of imperfect pieces.
