Philosophy and Artistic Process
Like putting on armor before a battle, men are often taught to hide behind a veneer of strength by concealing their strong feelings. By removing clothing, there are no places for men to hide, literally and figuratively. We begin to understand that by showing others our struggles, we gain the strength needed to overcome them. My photography incorporates the nude body into the environment as a metaphor for different emotional places. You can view a video that documents my artistic process with male models here. May this work give us a sense that men are beautiful when they show us who they truly are.
