ARTISTS STATEMENT
I'm so excited about I Shot Myself! I see this celebration of realistic, healthy, naked bodies as an act of insurrection against a world that tells women to cover up and be modest while men walk around topless on a hot day, a world that force feeds me airbrushed images of anorexic celebrities and tells me daily that my body isn't beautiful and the solution is to buy an endless list of products. When I'm naked I feel liberated from the hypocrisy and bullshit, I feel empowered and I feel sexy.

other random stuff: I decided I wanted to shoot outdoors for my first submission to ISM, this isn't so easy to arrange when you live in a high rise apartment in the middle of Sydney and don't own a car. I ended up hiding behind rocks at the quieter end of a beach on a Sunday afternoon while parents and children played a bit too close for comfort and more than one dog walker caught me sitting there naked, legs wide open and pointing a camera at my cunt. It was definitely an adventure!
