ARTISTS STATEMENT
Dit is de eerste keer dat ik een fotoshoot met mezelf heb gedaan. Het was een speelse ontdekkingsreis naar mijn lichaam, ik heb letterlijk nieuwe kanten van mezelf ontdekt. Wat me opviel is dat ik iets rondere vormen heb gekregen, en ik voel me vrouwelijker dan ooit! Wat ik jammer vind is dat ik me de dag ervoor geschoren had- het was een spontane shoot en ik had het scheren graag een onderdeel van de shoot gemaakt. Naast dat dit leuk zou zijn geweest, zou het een ideaal voorbeeld zijn geweest dat schoonheid, zelfvertrouwen en sexiness van binnen komt en niks te maken heeft met oksel- been- en schaamhaar, of hoeveel je lijkt op een beeld geschapen door mainstream media. In het begin van de dag voelde het allemaal wat onwennig, maar naarmate de dag vorderde en het licht veranderde, werd ik speelser met vormen en schaduw, symmetrie, driehoeken en rondingen, die ik heb proberen te vangen in het prachtige landschap en mijn prachtige lichaam. This was the first time I shot myself. It was a playful explorative journey closer to my body, I literally discovered new sides of myself. I noticed I am recently given a bit more curves, and feel more feminine than ever! I regret shaving the day before, it was a bit of spontaneous shoot and I would have loved to have made this part of the shoot. Besides the fact that it would have been fun, it would have been a perfect example of the fact that beauty, confidence and sexiness come from inside and have nothing to do with armpit, leg or pubic hair or how much you resemble an image shaped by mainstream media. At the beginning of the day I felt a bit shy, but as the day passed and the light changed I got more playful with shapes and shades - symmetry, triangles, curves, as resembled in the beautiful landscape and my beautiful body.
