Abstract
Narelle Delle Baite explores the concept of the inherent beauty of women through photographic practices. She found that hylomorphic portraits of women are created through photographic processes of facelessness, a dark aesthetic, distortion, blurring, and abstraction. These photographic processes disrupt the objectifying gaze and challenge idealised representations of female beauty.
