Afterbeauty, I, 2021

The spatial forms of Afterbeauty series are built with used facial masks, waste left after a cosmetic surgery intervention. The artist forces herself to perform the ritual of putting the mask on her face and she repeats the process until it becomes harmful to her skin. In this way, Marta Zgierska transforms her image into a pure form. The material used is visually separated from its primary context - the female face, and yet it remains a kind of self-portrait. Its aim is to undermine the current canon of beauty and the social pressure it entails, as well as the expectations on the female image.
