ARTEMISIA_G 

ARTISTS STATEMENT
I consider myself incredibly lucky that I was born into an artistic family. I was practically raised in galleries and art museums, and I have been exposed to the concept of the human nude in art from a fairly young age. It was never sexualised, and I think this laid the foundation of confidence and appreciation I have for nudity in art. My own parents have done a number of nude photoshoots and modelling themselves, so going into the Ishotmyself project, I felt a certain sense of ease and confidence that I think is missing from a lot of modern Australian society. I often express myself through my own art, and I loved the opportunity I got to express my raw self, in a manner I've never done before.

Why i shot myself: I shot myself because I wanted to try something new, and push my personal boundaries.
