ARTISTS STATEMENT
I truly appreciate that with ishotmyself I can 'say' whatever I please with my body, surroundings and camera. There's no pressure to be sexual, which in turn makes it very natural to take sexy photos when I want to. I think it's important to have spaces where nudity is not inherently sexual. It can be a very honest and beautiful thing to show a human body as it is with all its unique little quirks. I find with purposeful nudity I feel dignified and understood. I love all forms of art and this project felt quite natural for me as I life model for work.
