Modern Youth – identity & self-expression

This project explores the construction and performance of identity through fashion, self-expression, and visual presentation. Focusing on the idea that identity is fluid, curated, and constantly evolving, this fashion work combines cinematic, editorial-style imagery with symbolic domestic environments to represent tensions in adolescent emotional states and aspects of contemporary youth culture. While initially centred on fashion and visual aesthetics, the project developed into a deeper exploration of the complex and changing identities in female adolescence, and the insecurities, vulnerability, and performance that is found in the tension between childhood and adulthood.
