It is getting more and more difficult to define a concept of contemporary beauty. In urban society, where the hunt for perfection begins at an early age and modified ‘plastic beauties’ wave from the covers of glossy magazines, humanity’s struggle for perfection appears almost limitless.
This project is an explorative journey in search of alternatives that could replace plastic or aesthetic surgery. Design becomes a mediator between humans and existing body modification processes; static, permanent procedures are transformed into flexible, temporary prosthetics.

This is my Contextual Report for my final year project. In this paper, I propose that there is no need to undergo expensive, psychologically and physically painful procedures in finding your perfect look. Essential parts of the human psyche - confidence and self-esteem - could be easily lifted and ‘healed’ not just by a few cuts and stitches made by the surgeon, but also by through various design contexts and practises.
Throughout my research I have developed two areas of interest, which are conflicting. I do like this idea of creating designs for people who feel a ‘need’ to fit into constraining stereotypes, as well as the idea - to create new objects, new forms by applying surgical procedures (taking away or adding) to already existing practises or designs.

These are little brooches I have made to sell at Barbican. They all hand stitched, designed and made by me. Aren’t they cute? Yes, they are… I think so too… :))))

Sandra Kit
Plastic, metal and mixed materials,
USA , Europe and Japan, 2020
Sandra plastic surgery kit was a revolutionary example
of domestic surgery. It became popular with large
numbers of ordinary people who were interested in building
self-confidence. It was, however, always controversial in
medicine circles, as people could perform procedures
( Abdominoplasty, Blepharoplasty, Mammoplasty, Labiaplasty,
Rhinoplasty, Otoplasty, Rhytidectomy, Suction-assisted
lipectomy, Chin augmentation, Cheek augmentation
and etc. ) without consulting with a specialist.
As a consequence a lot of deaths occurred.
A kit consists of : a mirror, face/body sanding, grating,
buffing, measuring, stretching, blade and laser
cutting, suction and filling equipment.
