As an artist, my ongoing video project captures the personal stories of individuals who have lived a life full of experiences. The latest video in this series features an elderly woman, who was once a beautiful pianist in her youth. Despite aging, she has maintained a positive outlook on life and continues to experiment with fashion and style, even as her skin loses its smoothness. Through this video, I aim to bring attention to the issue of the diminishing interest in elderly women in society.
Growing up, many women are bound by societal and male-centered aesthetics, taught to adhere to certain beauty standards. Once women reach a certain age, they often become invisible to society, while also facing challenges related to childbirth. My video seeks to highlight the diversity of women's beauty and to encourage viewers to embrace the natural aging process, recognizing that wrinkles and lines on the skin are also beautiful.
In this video, I also explore the idea of fashion and its relationship with beauty standards. Do fashion films really need exaggerated clothing and makeup? Shouldn't we focus on humanistic issues instead? By doing so, I hope to shed light on the importance of embracing the natural aging process and challenging societal norms related to beauty and fashion. Ultimately, my goal is to draw attention to the experiences of elderly women, encouraging greater appreciation for this often-overlooked demographic.
