Scope and content

'Beauty Lies' questions the ideals, motivations and images of beauty in the media that could be seen as manifesting a 'white standard' of beauty. Narrated through a series of intimate video diaries and interviews, Karen takes the viewer in many “forbidden” places. She seeks to challenge generations of deeply woven misconceptions of a beautiful by pivotally shaving off her permed straight hair and posing the question-where does beauty lie?
