With the expansion of consumerism in recent years,the evolution of the representation,image,and discourse of the female body has gradually become a topic of great concern.The "net red face," "advanced face," and "white rich beauty" words that are constantly appearing in the public's field of vision convey the definition of women's images to the public.Women's bodies are constantly undergoing otherization and materialization.process.The examination of the body will inevitably involve the discussion of ideology.The power and the body will also become the focus of the discussion.Foucault specifically described the characteristics of modern power in "Discipline and Punishment." It was not imposed on the people and applied to the people from the top down,but it was a hidden,continuous,capillary-like dispersion.The state penetrates into life,power binds the body,and people are closely monitored by microscopic power.In this article,based on the study of power and micro power,taking the related theory of micro power as the starting point,taking the image ethnographic form of shooting records,taking the female body as a starting point,trying to understand the contemporary society's power landscape and examining the body in regulation.The power of the society is controlled so that how the power of concealment and imperceptibility is revealed in microscopic forms in life.By analyzing the power relationships that have fallen in the picture text and showing how women are subject to micro-power discipline,reflection on these two issues will be beneficial to show the power relations in society through the form of pictures.This article mainly includes three parts.The first chapter first introduces the background of the article selection,and summarizes the current research on micro-power at home and abroad through reading relevant literature.The second chapter briefly introduces the relevantconcepts of the article,including power,discipline,body,construction and so on.The third chapter records the records of women's lives through the method of image ethnography,shows the discipline of micro-power on women's body and analyzes the tactics behind them.
