about 2faced1.com

2FACED1.com shows one persons two different faces in photos;

Persona 1:
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

Persona 2:
WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!

 

A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND

A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. It means you have the feet in different worlds, can move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and have become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

A Retrospective: Katoucha + Role/model thoughts

Post date Mon 28 Sep 2009 8:04 AM

Sessilee Lopez makes many remeber the runway diva of the 90 ies; Katoucha, born in Guinea, based in Paris, - on runways all over the world.  She past away last year during what seems to still be unclear condition, 47 years old.  

While I give you some overwhelming luxery couture, from Dior, Ungaro and Yves think about the fact that so many people gets incredible excited over models n their behavior, it's understandable when a certain individual seem to embodie a certian spirit of the times - yes indeed. But at most times - no! Instead; what did the people tha actually made the picture plan and why? And who and what put's a model on? What cultural tendencies make Agyness, Alice, Lara, Sessilee or even Amber Rose what they are? Sometimes I don't think we learned anything from the 80ies times and all the Milli Vanilli -acting
