Wang Yue, a senior at Dalian Industry University, uses her paintbrush to turn ugly tree holes into lovely views in Shijiazhuang, capital city of Hebei Province.

Wang Yue calls the tree-hole paintings “meitu” which means “beautiful journey.” The paintings on the trees have brightened the city during the dull, grey winter.

Perceptions of beauty:

I don’t know exactly what it is about myself that causes this to happen but apparently my first impression does not give myself justice whatsoever as to what kind of person I am.  When people meet me they are generally tend be curious because I’m mixed and sometimes they are even overly friendly if they find me attractive.  For those that are overly friendly for the reason that they are attracted to me and that reason alone there seems to be an overwhelmingly negative response when they get to know me better because I did not meet their expectations.  I honestly have a hard time describing how I feel about this because I know I shouldn’t take it so personally but it’s very hard for me not to.  What I will say though is the fact that they aren’t equally kind to everyone and so superficial in nature says a lot more about them than it does about me.  The perceptions that the media spread about beauty are just an illusions and the fact that people put so much emphasis on this one attribute is awful.  Even though I try to look my best and would normally not go out of my way to be seen in a negative light, I have a lot more to offer than just the way I look.  I’m not afraid to be honest or depict myself in unflattering ways because that’s the reality of the matter and I’m not perfect.  Here are three sets of photos where I portrayed myself both negatively and positively proving that whatever attractive exterior qualities I may have are easily removable.  I will admit that I am beautiful but it has nothing to do with my appearance.

There is a certain pressure put on “typically” beautiful people that can even be classified as a sort of discrimination. Sometimes people believe that just because someone is “good-looking” then they must not have any problems and or/they must be especially more accepting to different sorts of sexual harassment/inappropriate advancements, which makes it okay for random people on the streets to call out to you or comment on your appearance . These sort of assumptions have lead to many negative experiences that have left me feeling overwhelmed and uncomfortable. I’ve had several cases where men/boys etc. would immediately give me special attention when first meeting me, obviously based on the fact that they found me particularly attractive, then after a while, they would lose interest and stop talking to me altogether once they found out I was different from what they expected. It’s difficult for me to make friends with people since I’m not a usually super outgoing person, and the fact that some people decide to become friends with me for superficial reasons leaves me feeling pretty (excuse me) shitty about myself. I want to be seen for the person I really am and not just for some “pretty face”.
