BY I AM MORE THAN COLLECTIVE

Celebrating Art and the Body

22.08.25

FREE ENTRY

Founded in 2017, I Am More Than is a community-driven body inclusivity campaign created to challenge the unrealistic beauty standards made by the fashion industry and mainstream media, by hosting exhibitions, events, inclusive fashion shows, photoshoots, podcasts and more all with the aim of celebrating talents and embracing what makes people unique.

Inspired from lived experience, the project was co-founded by Rosalind Main and Morgan McTiernan, both fashion models from Scotland, who experienced firsthand the pressures of unrealistic beauty standards. In response, they collaborated and co-founded I Am More Than, the platform that celebrates all bodies, all identities, and the radical act of self-acceptance. Their belief is simple: we are all more than our physical appearance, and we should not define how we see ourselves through unrealistic beauty standards online or in the media.

Morgan and Rosalind are practising artists whose work continues to be deeply influenced by the I Am More Than campaign and the impact social media has on beauty standards.

Their work has led to events at Fruitmarket Gallery, The Alchemy Experiment, and exhibiting at Visual Arts Scotland, and they have hosted panel discussions and inclusive fashion shows at Dovecot Studios.

 

" We’re proud to present 'Celebrating Art and the Body', a group exhibition curated by I Am More Than, celebrating the everyday beauty of diverse bodies and identities. The show brings together artists from across Scotland, all united by a shared inspiration of inclusivity in their creative practice.Join us for the opening night — an evening of art, live music, panel discussions, and community connection."
