In this series of experimental photographs, Marek tries to illustrate the growing problem related to the decline in women's positive self-esteem caused by the pressure to be 'ideal'. The media, popular culture and social expectations often put enormous pressure on women, influencing their self-perception and definition of their self-worth. We are currently witnessing historical events in which available aesthetic medicine, cosmetics and technology "improve" our appearance often in a few seconds. Furthermore, platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok can put pressure on users to present an idealized life and appearance. Unfortunately, unrealistic beauty standards and pressure related to appearance can lead to health problems, and young women's self-esteem is already declining, so consequently Marek works not only symbolize social pressures but also the absurdity of idealized beauty, masquerade, and our inner demons - the fear of rejection. What is more, Marek tries to break the boundaries between reality and lies by using not only real portraits of women but also portraits of people who never existed, thus emphasizing the falsity of portraits in social media, because in fact, the boundaries between what is real and what is idealized are increasingly blurred. The young generation is growing up bombarded with unrealistic images, which is an issue that requires our attention and education.
