Art transformation- Yasmine Beydou

So i decided to recreate the Birth of Venus, but to add a contemporary twist, I had her having plastic surgery (the spotted lines indicate "problem areas" that are to be altered through surgery). I thought it was interesting that our standards of beauty have changed so much that maybe the Venus in this painting would not be considered shapely in today's thin-obsessed society and therefore try to mold herself to fit our standards.
