In my work I examine certain ideologies that provide a model for individuals to exist within society. These models, such as consumerism and the cult of beauty, are given as the ultimate goal to reach, influencing one’s aspirations. I comment on these ideologies by bluntly exposing the main components that define their structure, delivering them to the audience to make their own judgment.
