ARTISTS STATEMENT
I worked a nude model in my early 20's but moved away from all of that as I found I could never be completely myself around other photographers. However, exploring abandoned buildings, being naked in nature, walking through the city in just a big coat to take sneaky nude shots, these are held as fun memories. Naked I feel more aware of my body, a good kind of conscious feeling, of how my bum wobbles when I walk and my nipples perk at a slight breeze. Sunlight feels foreign and warm on my breasts. I have been so unaware of my body, so taking these photos felt like a kind of self care. I have for a while felt unfamiliar with all the changes. Since having a baby I've not felt the energy or time. These moments felt for me like a self discovery, I've now started a new love for myself that I never really had before.
