Project_ISM - erotic art & public nudity

BAG

ARTISTS STATEMENT

I believe that every person has the right to express themselves in one way or another. I first began to do this with my piercings then with my tattoos. However, I began to realise my personal expression was becoming a fashion trend, and contrary to what people believe , I don't wish to be a trend or an advertisement for fashion! Instead I thought I would 'shoot myself' so that I could show the world how individual my body is. Also how I see my body as a canvas for which I can portray the most feminine and masculine ideas of art. This was not for fame or for public attention, instead it was to show the world the vulnerability behind a smile.
