A limited idea of beauty is portrayed in the media, with discussions of beauty not often going past the physical. Often, we look in the mirror and don't quite feel satisfied if we don't live up to societal beauty expectations. This is damaging because it gets in the way of truly seeing the beauty and wonder within ourselves. I have made a manifesto which takes a deeper, existential look into why we deserve to love ourselves. This manifesto serves as an important reminder, to myself and others, to appreciate ourselves more. 

 

A few key points of the manifesto are illustrated in this series of screen-printed posters.
