Wie bepaalt wat goed is voor mij?


In “Wie bepaalt wat goed is voor mij?” (Who decides what’s good for me?) I am searching for self-acceptance   regarding  my body image, gender role as a woman and the expectations imposed on women by society. In this video,   I link the feeling of being at home in the body by building a house. Being “home” should be a comfortable, safe  environment but instead it feels like a hostile environment, it is a self-portrait of my body. The house, which I tear  down, I do so with love, I want it broken but yet actually not. I want it in pieces on the ground until it can no longer be  a house, but at the same time I want to break it down carefully so that it is not in thousands of pieces.  Once the house lies on the ground in pieces; the dust in tatters, the wood smashed and the glass in endless pieces, there is still  that same question: 'who decides what is good for me?'  Download my thesis HERE  in dutch.
