ARTISTS STATEMENT
Growing up my parents would take me to festivals where many people were naked or partially naked. Having lots of siblings there also was a lot of little kids running around my house naked. Though my family was so open with nudity, I wasn't. Though I adored art featuring the naked body, I myself couldn't be naked. I was very reserved, I would wear t-shirts when swimming. I love the ideals behind I Shot Myself because you learn to completely accept yourself and your imperfections, every inch.
