Deflating vs Expanding.

I produced these two experiments to express how it felt to live as a larger individual doing normal things such as looking in the mirror, walking down the street and even eating dinner publicly. Having multiple versions of yourself being produced in your mind depending on the situation. I did not always dislike my body, I would love my body some days before leaving the house, but peoples comments or looks would change my mood. I'm hoping possibly with these I can try and show more how it is to live in a larger body, continuously questioning yourself how big or small you are that day? Continuously doubting your self worth because of a simple look (which may not even be meant in that way, but I and many other larger women have been conditioned to believe that people look at us and see merely fat bodies, and not a worthy human).
I would love to be able to make multiple of these in a large room, to express how everyday I felt different.
