Nudes nominee

The aim of the project is to capture a very sensual collaboration of the human’s body and extreme emotions that expresses both the physical and spiritual harmony. It is to immortalize the beauty of shape, the purity of art and the uniqueness of existence.

Photographer’s job is to emotionally connect with the sitters to be able to recognize and understand what feelings each individual person and its connection to the body can express. At the same time each person involved must have a clear understanding of the Photographers vision that is to deeply concentrate on emotion and the way it can be expressed through the body and its unique language.

Human’s body and its posture disclose both physical and mental mood and state of mind. All good and bad, happy and sad emotions can be read from people’s faces and the way we appear.

The Photographer’s aim is to touch all possible feelings and register a very emotional collaboration between her as an observer and sitters as acting objects.
