From the ancient Greeks to the Pre-Raphaelites, from Golden age goddesses of the silver screen to supermodel heroine chic – cultural and social idealisations of beauty fascinate and often fixate us. This one woman performance explores the narcissistic tendencies of our social media obsession with image/self, self/image and the darker side of this relationship {as chronicled on TikTok]. #young&beautiful
