PRIMARY - 11 DEC 2017
"My photo set is based around the ideals that are expected of a person, and that same person breaking through boundaries. The concept that we should be ashamed of our bodies is something I have grown up with knowing as the norm, and as such I have been labelled as innocent by many people. I may be innocent, but I am in no way ashamed, and this is what I was hoping to display. The idea of an innocent person is so often portrayed by someone being fully clothed, even moreso than necessary. The problem here is that the body is so beautiful, and innocence is portrayed by the person, not the body, in my opinion. Shooting myself was the most fun I have had in a while! I played with poses, angles, and bent my body in ways I didn't know I could. That said, I was incredibly sore the day after (once my body realised I am not a Gumby doll) and that I am only human. That was mildly entertaining, although from now on I am leaving the chocolate on the bottom shelf of the pantry for easy access!"
