Exposure : sharing male vulnerabilities and strengths in nudity

Mon. June 29 to Sat. July 4

Dévoilement : partager les vulnérabilités et les forces du nu masculin

Un projet photographique célébrant le territoire psychique et physique du paysage de l’homme nu. Un travail d’interaction et de collaboration qui explore les questions délicates de la façon dont nous habitons nos corps,  nos sentiments envers eux, et l’approche que nous employons pour guérir une estime de soi endommagée.

Exposure : sharing male vulnerabilities and strengths in nudity

A photographic project celebrating the psychic and physical landscapes of the male nude. This is a grass-roots endeavor based on interaction and collaboration that reflects the delicate terrain of the way we inhabit our bodies, how we feel about them and what approaches we take to heal an injured sense of self.
