Hello!
This is an editorial called Indulgence. For this project I was given: a massive costume jewelry ring, the color light green, and a podcast on color to take inspiration from. The idea was to be on the line of glamorous and gross. She is surrounded by sugary/ fattening food, saturated colors, and handfuls of gold. She is self involved and addicted to excess.
I wanted to touch on the fashion industry and consumer culture. Especially with my generation, instant gratification has become an issue. Impatience and selfishness often arises when being a consumer either online or in person. There is a sense of competition with possessions now with social media. There is a battle between art and being obnoxious. This photoshoot represents this battle with excess and beauty.
Cheers,
