Skin Deep (Concept)
UAL MA Design for Art Direction; Specialist Practices Unit, July 2021. Influenced by 1990s Benetton Group and 2000s PlayStation 2 advertisements, Skin Deep is a fictional body horror video game plus pastiche of 1980s slasher and teen coming-of-age film character types. Principally a fantastical commentary on body dysmorphia and contemporary beauty standards, Skin Deep's clinical visual aesthetic is a direct response to formulaic skincare and cosmetic surgery advertising.
