Project_ISM - erotic art & public nudity

LILLAH

ARTISTS STATEMENT

I was drawn to do this, as I thought that it would be fun, and because the female form is amazing. I think bodies are naturally beautiful as they are, not necessarily only if they're dolled up and preened and plucked, and that this, as well as sensuality and sexuality, should be expressed and celebrated. It's something that is universal, and shouldn't be repressed with unhealthy, outdated value judgments. I don't think there's anything inheritantly shameful about nudity or sexuality, and think that it is about time that the stereotypes about it being smutty and debasing be broken down. I also did it because I am totally comfortable with my body and who I am, and I have nothing to hide.
