Project_ISM - erotic art & public nudity

ARTISTS STATEMENT

Everyone has a body, and mine's a rather nice one...so why shouldn't I benefit from this? Not to mention have a heap of fun :) I had a great time getting up in the wee hours to get down to St Kilda Pier to capture my sexiness in view of several old fishermen. I think they enjoyed it too. Confest was great too because I didn't have to be the only one naked in the shoot and there was abundant mud and paint to play around with. I find nudity natural, fun and funny. People often feel comfortable in skimpy little outfits which are revealing much more of themselves than full nudity could, yet full nudity is shunned.
