This piece is focused on the body positivity movement popularised by social media in order to empower both men and women of all different shapes and sizes. The work is based on the Bopo influencer, Nelly London, who promotes confidence and self-love on her social media accounts.
Elisa Valenti’s honest paintings of bodies which often reflect her own, have inspired this work as I admire her communicating a message of positivity and acceptance within her work.
