My work investigates social conditioning, particularly
how gendered imagery in popular media influences
self-identity and interpersonal dynamics. I explore
themes of fragmentation, self-protection, emotional
safety, and projection within these frameworks.
Nostalgic yet critical of the cultural programming I
absorbed through media and advertising as a young
girl, I now recontextualize these narratives as they
proliferate online, unraveling personal and collective
perceptions of women.
