This series of photos explores the notion of augmenting one’s appearance to position one’s self closer to privilege. Presented as a series of 6 photographs, the image is a self-portrait that transitions from dark skin to light skin and vice versa. Skin bleaching, tanning, and body dysmorphic disorder are themes addressed in the work. Notions of acceptance, rejection and esteem are also present in the work.  If racial reassignment surgery were available, how many people of color (worldwide) would elect to have the procedure done?
