FaceMe : BODY

Their inaugural gallery gala, on Saturday, September 24th at the historical Strand Theater. FaceMe Studios is a multidisciplinary collective that honors visual creativity, vulnerable communication, and intimate connection through the lens of photography, film, visual arts, and fashion within our community. FaceMe: BODY seeks to dismantle body dysmorphia, its impact on mental health, and the resulting shame that has impacted marginalized communities by sharing the images and stories of Boston residents of all shapes, sizes, and ethnicities. Featured photographer Yohansy Garcia addresses the insecurities and mental health issues that affect our communities through the bombardment of digitally doctored images found in advertising, social media, and influencer culture. 

 

With help from Visual Architect Chrystian Dennis, Enhancing Esthetician Sarah Beth, and Griot Documenter Stanley Dominique, FaceMe Studios has produced many events, visuals, and conversations within our penned Art District of Upham’s Corner, Boston. The Collective welcomes you to attend their Gala night of art, performances, and conversations by purchasing a ticket or supporting their ongoing mission at FaceMe.
