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 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.

The Runway Of The 2FACED1s pt. II

Post date Thu 1 Apr 2010 6:24 PM

Here it is part. 2!!! Take your time to watch cause I'm really proud of this...hehe....no seriously I am. It should be worth your time.
There was whole lotta epic moments, that I always will take with me, during the planning of this show. Each and one of the 2faced1s stopped by my office and we sat down and had a talk about them and their perception of their own self, it became kind of deep. And personal. And when I found out that APOLLO was a tornedalian (swedish minority) just like I am, then he schooled me on things I didn't have a clue on! Understanding that some of the most positive and talented people on that runway had their ruff times too - but moved on!. Then to just be in the studio with the legendery rapper Adam a.k.a. ADL  recording our texts (like Michels " I danced better in high Heels than Madonna when I was 12" ADLs voice...you get it!), WOW I was jumping up and down like a kid, and Linn said she'd never seen me like that before. Add ZHALAs bubbly energy, Linns punchlines, and ROBYN writing togheter the most amazing little text about her 2FACED1-ness despite a super bizzy scheme in London. And the result on the actual runway: all so different and yet so beautiful in there uniqueness. 


THANK YOU ALL THAT MADE THIS POSSIBLE
