aberrantfun asked: *dear people of color who consider themselves aliies, get your cousin out of my inbox. I've been given the same qualities as you, some are less prominent. I'm not trying to force you to do anything that you don't want to do, I'm just sharing what I've noticed and what could potentially be a good way to stop what's been going on. I figured since you are so strong-minded and opinionated, you'd like to hear it. Sorry if I've offended, or come across as an idiot. It was not my intention.

Anonymous asked: Lol what that anon doesn't understand is the world is constantly changing. People are becoming bigger, therefore we literally need bigger things to accommodate the human race. What even is beauty anyway? I'm fat but I'm also respectful and a decent human being.
And being fat doesn’t instantly = not beautiful. I am fat and a fucking babe. As are you!

“Absent Bodies”
by Angela Pabón
The actual posmodern society through mass media, creates an endless cicle of deception and frustration in today’s women. A war against the weighing balance and the mirror, that ties women to a fantasy ideal of a body and a poor body image.
In this proyect I wish to speak about the bodies that have been excluded in the present cultural-historic moment. Absent bodies, because they’re not represented and are excluded, in a society where all the present bodies have to correspond to the homogeneus model promoted by the media. Bodies like mine, that are out of the beauty and health norms of society.
Through watercolors and self-portrait as an expressive tool, I wish to expose mi body in different situations of passive frustration, when I encounter myself with the fashion industry; where my body is absent in its size and design rank.
This is the first painting of my four real-scale self-portraits.
“Changing Room”
210cm (6.8 feet) high by 270cm (8.8 feet) wide. Watercolors and collage on Fabrianno watercolor paper.
