"A new kind of beauty?
I’m interested in what we define as beauty, when we choose to create it ourselves.
Beauty has always been a currency, and now that we finally have the technological means to mint our own, what choices do we make?
Is beauty informed by contemporary culture? By history? Or is it defined by the surgeon’s hand? Can we identify physical trends that vary from decade to decade, or is beauty timeless?

Show LessIt seems that, you don't get to perform yourself until you are created. The accidental leaving of shoes becomes an image that can perform itself over and over and over.
I guess you need the accident first.
