body con art


and you thought you had body image issues....

Korean artist Bohyun Yoon created 'Mirror costume' as a means to interrogate reality and to integrate that with the everyday experience of contemporary society. It plays with the idea of perception, what is real and what is not.

I personally think it reflects more on the idea of self-perception, on our own delusions about self and how we perceive ourselves may not actually be reality at all. So the question is, is what i see in the mirror the real me? or am i made to believe it as a result of society's reflection on my psyche? (this is me after having watched 'inception' which is a brilliant movie btw)
