The series was about creating something which is close to the earth, the woods, the leaves and more connected to nature
Series Inspired from many painter's work on Greek, Roman mythology. Starting from the renaissance period to Neoclassical to Romanticism. The Gods and goddesses, paintings like "Venus of Urbino", "Grand Odalisque" etc. What amazes me is the way they portrayed sensuality, curvature in a mystical way. The photographs are an amalgam of portraits and self portraits.
I belong to a country country where public display of naked bodies is considered a shameful thing, so I am just trying to change this perception and I believe Art, Photography are the only mediums through which this idea can be changed. So this series is a portrayal of naked bodies in nature as a symbol of liberation.
The photo series is an outcome of the ongoing PANDEMIC which leads to social locked down in many countries. I always find such isolation very peaceful. Its not today because of this global pandemic but from the beginning, my self portraits have always been an outcome of this isolation. this is what keeps me alive. may be I have fallen in love with this in these past couple of years. the process of creating something irrespective of people watching or not is just an underrated pleasure. the thing I loved the most about self portraits is that you don't have to depend on anyone for creating a* rt. all you need is your own emotions, your own thought processes and your madness.
I am a nude art photographer and nothing in my life matters to me more than photography. I find human naked bodies most surreal and raw form of art.
