When making this work I was thinking about the relationship we have with our bodies and how some people are unable to see their own body as others see them.

There are many cases of, what is called, body dysmorphia and it is becoming more prevalent amongst young girls, in particular, who, when bombarded with images of ‘perfect’ bodies online and in the media, regard their own ‘normal’ bodies as imperfect or gross.
