The "Undercover" project invites contemplation on beauty, the evolution of ideals, and the shifting perception of the human body across eras. By covering bodies in wet fabric, Marta Syrko obscures their familiar forms, creating an ambiguity that compels viewers to pause and reflect. This intentional blurring serves as a meditation on how we perceive and project ideals onto the human form, influenced by cultural narratives that change over time.

Through these abstracted figures, Syrko probes deeply into the layered perceptions of beauty, questioning societal standards and the historical contexts that shape them. By removing clear markers of identity, the project challenges viewers to confront their own biases and assumptions about the body. Undercover is an exploration of the intersection of form, identity, and the ideals imposed upon the body, encouraging a renewed understanding of beauty as something that resists fixed definitions.
