TALVI 

ARTISTS STATEMENT
Winter is coming and I felt a little cold while taking the pictures. It was funny to see my body in different angles and how it looks like changes so radically depending on the light and the position. One body part can look very elegant in certain angle but very funny in another one. To me it was important to accept each part of my body. The project was challenging but interesting and it was fun to take the pictures.
