The Student
“The Student” invites you to step back and appreciate the concept of aestheticism that can only be plausible on the female body. Shot by talented Malkiella Benchabbat, model by dazzling Sabina Goorg, is a manifesto against the stigmas of the submissive and sexual nature of femininity. Throughout history, female bodies have stripped of their true power, especially, when it is the subject of objectification. As, human beings, constantly imagining, theorizing and fighting towards a more utopic world, to talk about the lack of femininity is unspeakable. So, we have to rethink the concept and question the socially constructed system once again. What if, femininity classified as the dominant narrative and beauty becomes the source of strength. Benchabbat, like a teacher, is spreading the message that femininity blooming like a flower is the only way out to enter a world we all fantasize about.
