  • Downtime Downtime

    In a Newsweek article by Robert J. Samuelson titled "Adventures In Agelessness," Samuelson hits the nail on the head: "We live in an age when people increasingly refuse to act their age. The young (or many of them) yearn to be older, while the older (or many of them) yearn to be younger. We have progressively demolished the life cycle's traditional stages, shortening childhood and following it with a few murky passages. Adolescence--imagined as a pleasant mix of adult rights without adult responsibilities--begins before puberty and, for some, lasts forever....age denial is everywhere."

    I am never living in the present. I am generally absent. I am either worrying about the future, which is fearfully unknown or longing for the past, where life existed without responsibilities. My work reflects these feelings and explores how collectively we are often absent from our own lives.

    In this beauty project we used different shades of red lips to correspond with shades of "red" emotions. Therefore we focused on variations of love, lust, passion, and hate.

    This concept is inspired by my many recent experiences of culture clash, like overdrawing your bank account in Yen because you calculated the exchange rate incorrectly.

    This concept is about a millennial feeling out of place and suffocated in this aristocratic environment. As a result she becomes more and more like a reclusive wallflower.
