ARTISTS STATEMENT
After years of being a product of our society with very little body confidence, I have finally started to develop an appreciation for the most intriguing creature I know, myself. I constantly challenge, provoke, stimulate, confuse and amaze myself through my thoughts, perceptions and actions/reactions. My whole life I've looked down on myself, literally. Except for reflections, the only view I had of my body was when I looked down at myself. To see myself - through someone else's eyes, almost - really helps with comparisons, and while I see my beautiful uniqueness, I can also see I am a healthy human female, and I no longer feel like a bit of a freak. As my location options were restricted for the shoot, I decided to utilise the different light and shadow effects gained at different times of the day...
