Mission Statement
The Stripped Project exists to provide a fair representation of real beauty in hopes of repairing the damage done by the skewed depictions of the human (especially female) form in traditional media.
Manifesto
These photographs are neck-down only, front and back. These models and their photographs are un-"enhanced” and unedited in any way. These photos are not meant to be attractive or perfect or sexy, though they may be. They are meant to be honest. If traditional art is the idealized depiction of "beautiful" forms, then this is an anti-art project. This project is a protest against the current domination of pre-packaged beauty and conformist aesthetics. It is a celebration of the human form. The purpose of this project is to promote discussion. This is part photographic catalog, part documentary, part cultural commentary, part political statement, but mostly it is a revolution.

such a beautiful picture and model!! the lips make the picture perfect. reminds me of old black and white photos of the 20s and 30s. beautiful lips, beautiful body, beautiful breasts, beautiful back and bum! Knowing how easily women feel insecure and how much these insecurities are fed by the misogynistic procrustean media,I hope that this woman appreciates and enjoys her beauty
ReplyDeleteOnce the digicam was invented, once broadband at home became standard, and once people became fairly confident of internet anonymity, 10,000 years of body shame went into free fall. I would guess that, by now, hundreds of thousands of consenting adults around the world have bared all on the internet. We now have a better idea of what real people look like under their clothes than we have had at any time since stopped being hunter-gatherers. Anybody, and I mean anybody, can make softcore porn, and I suspect that many women have discovered that they enjoy it. Many include their faces. All this is a major human consequence of the ongoing IT revolution.
ReplyDeleteEveryday women baring all make up a powerful counter against commercial erotica and the mainstream modelling business.
Blogs such as this are evidence that Betty Dodson and Camille Paglia, and not the prim feminists of the 1970s and 80s, are winning.
I predict that this Proud to be Naked attitude will move to indoor pools and quiet beaches within 50 years. It will be generally conceded that an adult woman past some age has the privilege of being naked in public if she wishes, especially if there are no young men around.
A major moral problem with the world that has evolved over the past 100 years, is that indecent exposure is not used to put raunchy magazines and strip joints out of business. The adult film industry flourishes. But trying swimming naked at your neighborhood YWCA!! Try breastfeeding in a booth at your nearest Burger King! I have concluded that it is OK for a woman to bare all, if it greases the wheels of commerce. That is, if she is paid for it. God forbid that a woman let people see her boobs and pubic hair for free! I submit that the law has created an environment and a culture porn requires to be profitable. Yuk!
The internet has challenged this perverted state of affairs in a massive way. I dream of a day when so many women have bared all for free, that no one will pay to look at a naked woman.
It is very true that, as you reveal, some women have narrow hips and small breasts, and happily bear and raise several children. I married one such.
