“To move is better than to be perfect”
Do you know the feeling of never doing enough to meet your own expectations? This drive can be motivating, but also stressful, especially when chasing unrealistic beauty standards. It’s not about being perfect, but about making progress—the journey is the goal. By focusing on improvement rather than flaws, you can develop a realistic and positive self-image. It's important not to be guided solely by external ideals, but to prioritize your own well-being and inner satisfaction.
PERIODE 1 │2008-2009
The series "To move is better than to be perfect" explores the liberating power that emerges when one lets go of perfectionism and instead focuses on action. The works in this series depict the shift from the paralyzing pursuit of perfection to dynamic, mistake-friendly movement. Perfectionism, often a barrier to progress, is revealed here as a blocking force. In contrast, the images highlight the importance of taking the first step, even if it’s not perfect. The series encourages breaking out of one’s comfort zone, shedding the fear of mistakes, and embracing life’s possibilities through bold action. True transformation lies in movement, pushing us further than the pursuit of flawless perfection ever could.
