Social Media is essentially all about \u201cperformance\u201d \u2013 in it, we always try to present the most sanitised, the most polished, most self-censored version of ourselves to fit a specific aesthetic or mode of desirability. But what about the \u201cmoments we don\u2019t Instagram\u201d? What about the uglier parts of our physical lived realities? What about the parts of our body, our identities, our sexuality we don\u2019t perform on social media, but are still an intrinsic part of who we are? These are exactly the questions artist and illustrator Kaviya Ilango tries to address in her Instagram art project called #100DaysofDirtyLaundry.<\/em> From menstruation to not-so-ideal mental health to body hair, Ilango doesn\u2019t hold back when she illustrates the realities of being young and female, stripped of all performativity.<\/p>\n
