Project_ISM - erotic art & public nudity

MYCHELLE

ARTISTS STATEMENT

I feel free, uninhibited, wild, empowered, sexy. Being a part of this project speaks so much of my art and advocacy for sexual empowerment and self-love. I enjoyed going through the process of initially feeling awkward, fumbling through angles and lighting, worrying about the number of shots required and running out of ideas, cramping, feeling insecure about certain body parts then reassuring myself and falling in love with it all over again, then eventually seeing the shots I've made and the bewilderment at what I could do with my body and a camera and then giggling and laughing and finally just letting go and having fun flirting with the lens. There has always been an exhibitionist inside me and as much as I have dipped my toes in showing myself off, nothing has been as empowering as this. Being both behind and in front of the camera was such a cathartic experience, I was both teasing and ogling myself! I loved it and would absolutely do it again.
