La dictadura de la belleza
Many of Batista’s projects explore aspects of the quotidian life, including a conflict
between conscious and unconscious thinking and acting among individuals in
contemporary society.
Drawing on his experience as a makeup artist, favorite topics include the particularities
of the makeup industry. La dictadura de la belleza comes as the question of how we
define our personal aesthetic identity, the influences that shape us, the limits to the
search for beauty, and, as perhaps the most interesting aspect, the follower’s desire to
become an influencer.
