It is said that art comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable. And we are so used to seeing photoshopped faces and bodies, and that has disturbed the idea of perfect for us so we feel uncomfortable in our own skin, always chasing that prescribed idea of perfect.
In order to bust this myth and take a step towards empowerment via photography, Raqeeb Raza- an artist wearing many hats including photographer, researcher, reporter, writer, scholar-takes us through his journey of finding art in the real, unfiltered, normal faces and bodies. He talks about shedding the self-conscious feeling and feeling like art with whatever accessories we might be blessed with-abs, flabs, dimples, pimples, jawline, double chin, etc.
Hosts Farhad & Sunetro also discuss with him the censorship issues across social media platforms and Raqeeb highlights some of the biases that companies have while taking down/ retaining reported posts.
And make sure to stay till the end because we have a longer list of amazing recommendations for the upcoming weekend!
