Cindy Sherman

Cindy Sherman creates photograhs herself whilst disguised as characters attempting to create a narrative through a series or within a single frame. To do this, she physically alters her own appearance with the use of fake tan, wigs, costumes and makeup. In her earl work she recreated film stills and through the series described the roles different women play in society. She featured vulnerability and strength throughout these photographs. In her more recent work, she looked into the ideas of plastic surgery and altering your face to make yourself look good. Despite the photographs being unappealing and a poor advertisement of how you could look, there is a definate look of pride of the models that suggest they feel happy with the results of the work despite viewers disagreeing.
