Like many of The Weird Girls Project episodes, EmbraceYourself assumes a music video format as a platform to encourage body confidence in a variety of different shapes. The piece features women encrusted in thickly layered gold body glitter dancing amidst wet volcanic sand with a backdrop of angled mirrors. The purpose of this piece is to promote a message to women to embrace their bodies; celebrating themselves and truly loving who they are.
