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.

What's The 411, hun?

Post date Thu 8 Dec 2011 7:06 PM

Hey I love the i n t e r n e t. Amazing finding old photos like this one! It's Mary, her sister (i think), Misa who used to kick it with P.Diddy back when he was Puffy, and Faith. Those who hadn't been down with Mary since 1992 (die hard day one) doesn't know what a huge style icon Mary was back then. Her style was razor sharp, always on point, not too much and not too little, the perfect IT. All about how to rock someting, swäg, style - brands or not didn't matter! (I would guess below is around 95.)

This post goes out to my girls from this era! You know who you are! And I'm very stoked at the moment cause I'm meeting some of them next week, in NYC! Cause I'm doing Saturday Night Live, biiitches!!!
