Title

Fed Up

Creator

Kouroupi, Elena

Abstract

“Fed Up” is a collage on a canvas that explores how food, body image, and emotions are connected, especially under the pressure of social media and beauty standards. The messy, layered look of the artwork reflects the inner chaos many people feel when dealing with eating, self-worth, and how they’re seen by others. Inspired by psychological theories, the piece shows how we can feel torn between who we are and who we think we should be. It is personal, emotional, and it is meant to make viewers think about how society shapes the way we see our bodies, our choices, and our value.

This work touches some sensitive topics, so please discuss with the creator before the project's exhibition.
