Every woman can personally relate to this topic, not because it is a part of her but forced on at every level of her existence. Just like any other woman this is a topic that I wanted to work on at a very personal level. The reason was not the visual front of studying about it, as part of the course— it was deeper. As I say I have been a victim of body shaming, I have also been on the other side of the ladder and made people feel the lack of love for the shape they are in.
The categorisation of women is shameful. But what’s worse is that its not just men who are responsible for this. There are women who judge women.
Through this shoot, I have tried to show the everyday struggle of girls who don't fit in the point of perfection, are judged and made fun of. With a light weight shoot, the idea was to present everyday incidents that we might not even think of as a problem but demand an action.
