Candy Ward’s work is a celebration of diversity in women’s bodies. The Venus vase was created in response to modern day beauty standards and the accepted ideal “Instagram” body. The Venus challenges this standard and rebels against it. Candy’s work encompasses a playful yet sophisticated quality and merges the boundaries between decorative and functional design.
'I want people to connect with my work and see themselves in it. I want people to look at my work and think that beautiful - and it looks like me...empowering people to see the beauty in themselves.'
