Drawing from, the generalisable hyperfeminine (girly) aesthetic and symbols of social media in the early to mid 2010s to interrogate the way in which we reify our identities through the images we produce and the images we consume. Through my video based work, I examine aesthetic tropes associated with femininity, youth and beauty. Muddying the relationship between critical malaise by embracing the moving images powers of enchantment.
