This work satirizes the phenomenon of body augmentation of women. It illustrates the post-surgery of a woman's breast, buttocks, and stomach with the impression of staples, stitches, and real surgical tape. Within my experiences of womanhood, I've been met starting frequently to periodically with unsolicited body criticism as I've seen girls to women face the same. Now, this era is met with a trying solution to please the ones, including men, who ever ridiculed or through shame on our organic frames.
