Weight consciousness has always been a constant issue I have faced throughout my life. The never ending torturous journey of weight gain and loss.

The idea of weight consciousness that I am trying to portray is that wherever I am at and whatever that I may be doing, the thought of the weighing scale and checking my weight is always as the back of my mind. Regardless of the activity, it’s always at the back of my mind, like an itch that won’t go away.

Showing the weighing scale is a way for me to portray physically of what’s going on in my mind.

My initial idea was to portray and tell a story of how it is a never ending cycle of weight gain and weight loss.

 

But Prof. Vladimir suggested to me that I not tell a story, but instead to focus on one object by itself which, too, could portray the idea of weight.

It would definitely have been difficult to tell a story of weight loss in so few photos, especially since weight loss is a really long process, for some.

No matter what, the cycle of weight gain never stops.

So, instead of telling a story, I will be picking out the object which represents the idea of weight. The weighing scale.

 

Here’s a sneak peek at the final idea!
