ARTISTS STATEMENT
This isn't the kind of thing I'd normally do, but whatever I have been doing certainly hasn't been working out for me so here we are. Ever since I started to view my body as really belonging to me, I've just hated it. Years of half baked and totally unnecessary weight loss plans and transformation schemes, since I was 11, maybe younger. All that self-loathing gave me a complex and life-destroying eating disorder (cliche, I know), and my body no longer belonged to me. Being nude was not something I did, like ever. There was a period of about 6 months where I showered wearing a t-shirt. I made the decision a few years back to get my shit together. I went to hospital, followed rules, ate what they told me, weighed what they told me. I was better, but my body still didn't belong to me. I'm healthier now than I've ever been, both in body and mind. I'm still not there though. Taking part in a project like this is my next step, starting to take ownership of my body. I still want to be 'beautiful' but I'm just starting to realize that people don't 'become' beautiful, they just are. Everything and everyone is beautiful, the world just has the wrong attitude, and so did I.

occupation: Ahh I hate this question. Let's just say vagabond.
age: Old enough to party (20).
height: 170cms.
relationship status: In a relationship.
starsign: Sagittarius. According to Wikipedia that makes me the 'life and soul of the party'.
biggest passion in my life: My cat. That is all. He's a fat ball of love.
I like to listen to: the birds in the morning, my housemate sleep-talking, people's conversations.
I like to watch: people, documentaries, Star Wars, people REALLY getting their groove on, sunsets, sunrises, animals.
I like to smell: my backyard after it's really rained, freshly cut basil.
I like to taste: fresh fruit, the Il Greco pizza at Bimbo's ($4!), a good beer on a summers day.
I like to feel: smart, the sun on my skin, sexual tension, the warmth of my bed in the morning, skin on skin.
favourite part of my body: My bum. It's recently become an icon of worship for my boyfriend.
favourite part of someone else's body: Bum. You can never go wrong with bums. Bums all round!
Why i shot myself: Because I refuse to keep hating the way I look.

my website/fav website: Obscuresound.com, some of the greatest, most under-appreciated tunes around.
