Basic description of the project: ANAD is a pro bono organisation that educates the public about the dangers of anorexia. They asked us to help them raise money and awareness.
The Solution: To demonstrate the unhealthy beauty ideals promoted by the media and fashion industry we re-painted world famous masterpieces. These paintings were then displayed in fine art museums - exactly where visitors would expect to see manifestations of true beauty.
The Results: This shocking sight generated enormous interest, which spread via word of mouth and numerous articles in major national newspapers.
