‘SERENE_SOLITUDE’ by

"I went away on a weekend alone-time-getaway to the beach. It was beautiful but so cold. I wanted to be by the ocean to do this shoot as I feel a special connection with water; it makes me feel calm, serene and powerful. The body is like the littoral, always shifting, changing and transforming. We must let go of preconceived idea of how our bodies should look. The important thing is how you feel and at that moment, I felt free and wonderful. The wind was blowing strongly and the sun's rays were piercing their way through the clouds. BEAUTIFUL! It was quite cold on the beach though...before removing all my clothes, I was wearing 4 jumpers and a beanie!! It was a ridiculous moment and I couldn't stop laughing at the absurdity of the situation. As soon as I finished shooting and was heading back to my van, a big storm cloud flew in and it started pouring. The amount of water coming down was impressive! The rain did not stop until late afternoon. Good thing I had already photographed myself!"
