During the last three years I did a course of studies on Japanese culture. I think Japan has always been on my mind since I was little and there are many reasons as to why I feel connected to it, even though I've never been there. For instance, Japanese erotic art has been an inspiration for my work as a model. "Shunga" is a type of Japanese erotic art typically executed as a kind of ukiyo-e, often in woodblock print format from the Edo period. If you don't know anything about it, I recommend you check it out! With this set I want to give you an approach to shunga and show my version of it! Hope you like it!
SuicideGirls… became famous for embracing beauty in every shape and form — meaning bodies covered in tattoos, having bright-colored hair, and being outside of traditional beauty norms were celebrated. The name comes from the idea that women who commit “social suicide” by being different come together.
A nation wide art-sleaze phenomenon.
It’s like a punk rock Vogue…with artful nude photos of women.
Fifteen years ago, a small-but-passionate community that celebrated beauty in alternative, pinup-style photography was born. It was called SuicideGirls.
They’re the girls next door - but more colorful and with better record collections.
SuicideGirls respond… in the best way possible.
The meeting place for people interested in alternative lifestyles.
SuicideGirls is as much about community as it is about naked photos of tattooed women.
SuicideGirls is redefining concepts of beauty across the globe.
