Taeho Son

The Toxic Mirror @shinabroson shinabroson.com ‘The Toxic Mirror’ represents a young woman’s experience with body image. The idea of this project began when Taeho Son saw a display of mannequins in shop windows. This made him question why all these bodies look so similar, and why only this specific body type is valued. With his project, Taeho Son explores how society makes us see what is considered as ‘ideal’ for a woman’s body and only presents one specific look throughout social media as well as many other industries.
