Androgyny
A seemingly odd aesthetics. Androgyny is not seen as a typical beauty ideal. It therefore suggests that this form of portraying ones self is still considered a new approach Constructivism however h has been used for decades to send out a strong, stern message, it’s forms and linear structures are implemented in our culture, making this art movement a very socially accepted one.
Man or woman? This blurred line of gender reinforces the desire to explore. “Androgyny is not trying to manage the relationship between the opposites, it bet is simply flowing between them�. - June Singer.
Despite an amount of disdain there is a shift in ideals taking place. Androgyny has a strong threshold in fashion and this allows debate to flourish. In using something so common as constructivism and combining it’s aesthetics with the grey area of androgyny we might be able to connect the two and form a better image.
