WHERE LEGENDS ARE MADE AND LIES ARE TOLD (graduation project). Originated by this divine union of @parishilton @britneyspears @lindsaylohan (aka the Holy Trinity <3) the night of the infamous Bimbo Summit, WLAMALAT is the visual and critical translation of my obsession for the #y2k it-girls and #popculture in general. Mixing a religious with a highly commercial aesthetic, the project questions several topics such as women representation in the mass media, visual/celebrity culture consumption and new belief systems.

This 7-minute video goes “behind the scenes” of my fascination and reveals how i position myself in this project; the diploma is about 3 of my idols but also about me. Result of several automatic writing sessions, the text uses a plurality of voices to represent different perspectives and versions of myself: the expert, the fan, the vulnerable and the one where i become the object of my obsession.
Results of spontaneous and parasitic visions during my research, this collection of objets is the reflection of my adoration for the y2k holy trinity using a religious language mixed with merch and early 2000’s fashion aesthetic.
