Ladylike: To Be a Woman
‘Ladylike’ follows the journey of a young woman growing up and adapting to fit the stereotypes and gender norms that are expected of her. An ideal drilled into her from early in life, ingrained in her, shaping her sense of self. Exploring themes of equality, sexism and femininity through the form of self-portraiture, the project challenges the idea of “the perfect woman” who ticks the boxes that make her “attractive” and “desirable” to the world. We see her inner growth as she traverses the stages of her life, her safety and freedom become unattainable, and being conditioned into servitude becomes reality. Passivity towards her autonomy can only go so far until she makes a break for freedom and power.
