I SHAPE BEAUTY

“When you look at your body what do you see?” 

"Shapes/curves. Different shades of brown. Scars and blemishes. I see myself."
- Lesley Asare


This costume based performance explores the ways through which women add, subtract, lift, and mould themselves to satisfy the observers both within and outside of themselves. It questions what lies beneath the surface when each layer of skin of is peeled away.

Designed and performed by Lesley Asare
Choreographed by Simon Vincenzi
