This work is about looking at the human form. My idea was to try and make the human body, resemble white marble statues. I chose to use a male model in this as I think you can get more androgens poses that take away then sexuality and identity of the person so you can objectify them. I like they way in which I have only captured parts of the nude, using a harsh light that makes the nude blend into the background, making them intertwine. This has created an atmosphere of piece, serenity and purity. In doing so makes it more about art and substance than sexual desire and voyeurism. These pictures were taken on a medium format camera, Hasselblad 500c with 120 black and white film, a studio, pro lights, a sink lead and a light meter. These photographs have been developed and printed by me and then I have scanned them onto a computer, which is why there is some dust. Which I do apologise for as that is not the best of quality. However I hope you enjoy.
Also if u like this style or are interested in nude photography, two of my favourite photographers are Robert Mapplethorpe and Edward Weston.
