ARTISTS STATEMENT
It feels important to express myself through nude photography and contribute to the folios in this project to show real, natural and diverse bodies. Because there is so much pressure on AFAB people to look a certain way, which can cause insecurity and affect self esteem. By showing naked bodies in many shapes and sizes, it shows people that that beauty comes in many forms. I think that we should be able to express ourselves, our bodies and sexualities freely and openly without shame. We should be able to feel connected to our bodies either nude or clothed without external societal pressure to look a certain way or be scared about showing skin.
