Mia’s Virtual Vanity
Long time no art inspired shop my stash, but we’re back and I’m exposing myself as a HUGE NERD that can’t properly express the concepts she talked about. I feel I could’ve done this better justice but most of these concepts I kind of understood intuitively and internalised and it’s hard for me to explain them…which might mean I don’t completely understand them? I read somewhere that if you can’t explain it to a kid, you don’t know it well enough lmfao
THINGS REFERENCED IN THE VIDEO:
An Allegory of Victory by Jules Joseph Lefebvre
Semiotics
Jungian collective unconscious & collective conscious
Saussure’s theory of the signified & signifier (my humanities degree wasn’t useless after all lmao)

(((((*)))))these are not affiliate links but I do get a small kickback if you decide to buy after clicking through them. i’m only partially linking things because certain things i don’t know where you can find them in your country & i’m not about to waste your time with bad links .
the audio de-syncs somewhere in the last quarter of the video. this happens because my camera is dumb and doesn't know how to do the audio properly when it films past the 15 min mark. and sometimes i miss that mark and keep filming. sometimes i manage to fix it. sometimes i don't. this is one of those times.
This reminds me of all the fun stuff I learned in college that I’ve definitely forgotten by now. 😊 I loved semiotics the most though and my favorite book from back then was “Metaphors We Live By.” Love the look and the inspiration!
What a cool and unique concept!
I adore these videos Mia and your dive into allegories was such a delight to listen to while watching you do your makeup. Love it.
I love the concept of this video and it was a beautiful look in the end 🙂
I love learning about things and makeup so to combine the two is just perfect!
I studied biology not the arts so I hadn't heard of these things so thanks 🙂
This was so amazing thank you for sharing
This is my absolute favorite series of yours Mia! I really wish you got more views on this content. It is so unique and creative.
This is my favorite series of yours!! Thanks for keeping it going🥰
I just want to have some wine with you and geek out about art theory and makeup!! 🤗🤗
I love these kinds of videos! I never have enough time to wander through museums anymore so this is a way for me to get some art into my life without leaving my house 🙂
What a fantastic idea! I follow you on IG and love your beautiful looks and fun humor. I majored in English literature/creative writing but don’t have the chance to immerse myself in those studies as much anymore (yay, work and everything else!). Thank you so much for this!!!
