ARTISTS STATEMENT
I felt good when I did this project. Even though I rarely admit it, my past has affected how I thought about myself. This photoshoot is definitely a step for me. I did not say my life changed completely, but it's a step towards appreciating myself more. I featured in some of my shots one of my favorite books, The Vagina Monologues. It served as my inspiration. I was inspired by those women represented in the book to gain control of myself and respect for who I am. I came to know myself, my body and of course, my vagina (which I used to think was a one way ticket to hell whenever I felt pleasure from touching it). Pretty ignorant, huh? This project was truly a liberating experience, and really fun to do!
