2019/2021, Digital photography and installation

Toxic masculinity sets stringent and detrimental standards on what our bodies should look like, often resulting in shame or unwarranted pride. (Social) media and the (gay) porn industry perpetuate an unrealistic bar against which male-identifying folks measure their self-worth. In its most literal sense, that measurement is the size of the penis. I interrogate these standards and ideals in this work, presented in small-format prints (3.5x4cm) mounted on a miniature wall (60x80cm) with an accompanying 4-factor loupe.
