ARTISTS STATEMENT
I was drawn to this project by it's commitment to showing a range of bodies - authentic and unapologetic. As a queer woman I am interested in different forms of beauty, and in the ways that bodies, sexuality and sensuality are policed and censored. My body is mine and I celebrate it for bringing me pleasure and laughter, and mostly doing what I want it to do, though sometimes doing the opposite. I enjoy my body as a sensual thing - watching and being watched during sex, giving and taking. Equally I love my body as a practice tool, the thing that gets me to the top of mountains and let's me turn fingers on a keyboard into sound. I want to share and express my gratitude for the range of experiences it brings me.

ARTIST PROFILE
birthplace: Melbourne, Australia
occupation: Community health worker
age: 27
height: 165cm
relationship status: Dating
starsign: Taurus
biggest passion in my life: Queer visibility - being the representation that I wish I had seen as a younger person. My current obsession is ducks (I know). I now have 33 little duck figurines and counting
I like to listen to: My pet bird singing to try to make friends with the kettle
I like to watch: Queer films, thrillers, and low budget movie about an environmental apocalypse
I like to smell: Fresh cut herbs - coriander, mint and sage
I like to taste: Any and all types of cheese, a soy flat white in the morning, and my favourite vegetable - cauliflower
I like to feel: The kind of tired that comes after a productive day
favourite part of my body: My ears, which are oddly small. The plus side is that I can buy kid's size hats, the down side is I can only buy kids size hats
favourite part of someone else's body: Their hands, they can tell you a lot about what someone has done and what they are feeling
Why i shot myself: I shot myself in an exercise of self love - loving my favourite parts and my less than favourite parts, and everything in between.
who I'd least like to see shoot themselves: I'd least like to see Tony Abbott. I've seen enough budgie smuggler action for a lifetime
who I'd most like to see shoot themselves: I'd love to see my girlfriend shoot herself for this project, I've seen some of her photos and they're gorgeous
Most outrageous thing I have done: Brought home a girl to meet my parents for the first time
Bands I like: Aldous Harding, Christine and the Queens, Megan Washington, and Sharon Van Etton
Books I like: Men Explain Things To Me by Rebecca Solnit, Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado, and The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk
Films I like: Portrait of a Lady on Fire, the Fear Street movies, Pride. And But I'm a Cheerleader of course!
