The Human Project
As mentioned before, showcasing the distinctiveness of each participant has been a significant motivator for me when creating images. With “The Human Project,” I wanted to take this one step further and perhaps one step back, all to highlight the distinctiveness I mentioned. This project was more akin to portrait sessions than the “The Box” series was. How do people respond to having their portrait taken in the nude? In many ways, this project allowed participants to be vulnerable while simultaneously being empowering. A sense of belonging and acceptance while sharing our authentic selves with the world free of judgment.
