ARTISTS STATEMENT
Doing this has made me think a lot about how I perceive my body. I realised that in some aspects I had some really unhealthy expectations of what a naked body should look like. I have really enjoyed throwing caution to the wind and portraying my body with honesty. I love being nude around my friends, but it took seeing my body on screen to decide how I felt about it. It's important to love and accept yourself without a preconceived notion of how you are supposed to be. This process has made me love the fact that my body is unique to me and I love it for that.

biggest passion in my life: My passions change with my clothes, but they always will be about proving to myself how diverse and varied I can be.
I like to listen to: people's conversations, especially when they think no one else can hear.

favourite part of my body: My belly button.
favourite part of someone else's body: I love my boyfriend's shoulder blades. When we hug my hands slip into the curves so well.
Why i shot myself: To celebrate my body as being a 100% unique vessel and to explore it in a way I had not previously done before.
who I'd least like to see shoot themselves: My mother. Though I'm sure it would be a great experience for her, I'd rather not know.
