Justine Tjallinks, Surfaces

Preview

This portrait series is created to generate appreciation of human diversity in its physical form. The diversity of body and beauty types is changing the aesthetic standards of our time and with it, people’s cultural and identity codes.

Mostly thanks to social media, much progress has been made towards a more inclusive representation of our differences.
Yet our society remains to struggle with acceptance beyond the norm.

According to philosopher George Canguilhem, norms and behavioural codes are not biological but rather the result of the relationship between human beings and their environment. Perhaps, through an aesthetic revolution that only art can carry, we can change people’s gaze.
