SELF-OPTIMIZATION


Thoughts during my research

BODY, CHANGE AND SHAME - a physical research.


At the beginning of the research, I googled a lot of diets and thought about which ones I wanted to do. Then I had the feeling that I had fallen into a trap. To end up in destructive, outdated ideas about images of women. I looked into the topic of self-optimization and felt a great dislike for it. This research should lead me to new shores and not to old, overwhelming patterns of action. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that I don't want to change or optimize my body. Quite the opposite. Maybe instead I'll stop trying to be slimmer and get fitter and maybe I'll stop dyeing my hair or painting my nails - I've almost stopped doing that since the pandemic started anyway. Maybe this is the change I'm looking for?
