I looked into an article online called Media, Culture and Society which provides a peer reviewed international forum for research and discussion on the media. It comments on the increasing role of the media in todays world. It states that society is influenced by the media and people aspire to meet the unattainable standards of the people they see online. It goes on to say that the media affects peoples perspective and it has intervened so much it has given people a warped sense of whats right and wrong. Commenting on popular tv shows such as dating shows that are sexist or promote a specific ideal that isn't attainable nor 'real life' situations giving people a false ideology of whats attractive.
I don't want my images to just solely focus on society and ideals within it but I would like them to touch on the fact that people from different ethnicities can come together and as a series stand strong portraying many ideals of appearance all as strong as one another.
