"I entered making this work with a sense of fascination that hair is both beautiful and repulsive in our culture. The fragile influence of context is its only distinction. We see long hair on a woman as a symbol of beauty and femininity, but as soon as the hair is cut or removed from the body, we think of it as unsanitary and strange. Likewise, we seem to never have enough hair in the places we want it, and too much hair in the places that we don’t want it to be!" -photographer Rebecca Drolen

Yet another quote that inspires me mostly through my day to day life is normalizing such a simple thing as body hair on my own. I'm trying to include it in my art as well. Pleasing society is not what my art is for. My art is made to make you question yourself and learn how to be at peace with understanding that people are different.
