Specialist note

The two elements provide an interesting foil to society's conceptualization of female beauty. The poster depicts certain stereotypes of female sexuality, while cropping out her face to depersonalize the imagery. The XXXLarge t-shirt with a painted on bikini body both mimics and counters the poster image, playing on reality and fantasy.
