ARTISTS STATEMENT
At first I was apprehensive about taking photos in the full buff for everyone to see - I've only ever done this for people I know. I was a bit hesitant at first with the angles, how parts of my body looked and how my face looked. Halfway through, I thought F it! This project is to move away from mainstream social media, pornography, "perfect" poses and bodies and so I just went with it. I took photos of myself in angles I would never imagine to even keep for myself let alone share to a bunch of strangers. I felt liberated prancing around my house naked taking photos of myself. I did this project to boost my confidence with my body and self and I think it has definitely helped push me towards that goal!

ARTIST PROFILE
birthplace: UK
occupation: N/A
age: 30
biggest passion in my life: Animals. I always wanted to become a vet when I was wee and I'd love to have my own animal shelter. Also dancing. I am absolutely obsessed with going out every weekend to events, letting my hair down and dancing hours on end and carrying it on until early hours the following morning
I like to listen to: Thunder storms - there is nothing more calming to me than watching thunder and lightning and listening to the rain pour down. It soothes me so much
I like to watch: People. I love sitting outside on a bench people watching
I like to smell: Food! I absolutely love cooking and eating with friends and family. It's a way of bringing everyone together and just enjoying good food and great company
I like to taste: The back of jigsaws/freshly painted wood. I loved it as a child and I still love it now at 30 years old - weird!
I like to feel: Love. I love cuddles, kisses, laughing, holding hands, deep conversations with people who I absolutely adore
favourite part of my body: My legs! I love how long they are. I'll always be in outfits that have my legs out!
favourite part of someone else's body: On a male - hands! On a female - boobs!
Why i shot myself: For a confidence boost. I constantly analyse all my photos, thanks to social media! I hate how much I judge my body and the way I look. I wanted to do something completely out of my comfort zone and push myself to a better version of me.
who I'd least like to see shoot themselves: There's no one I wouldn't like to see do this project - you do you!
who I'd most like to see shoot themselves: Every single one of my girlfriends - P power!
Most outrageous thing I have done: I cannot think of anything on the spot, but I do think posting these completely nude photos online is up there...
Bands I like: Fred Again, Nelly Furtado, Stereophonics
Books I like: Anything that is self help!
Films I like: Anchorman, Blow, Taken
