«Having lost more than 50 kilos in 18 months, has given me a lot of excess skin. This project has been a self-examination, and it has been an important part of my process towards becoming "a new body" and to experience a self-realization, both physically and mentally. My personal goal is to show that even if your body (or skin in this matter) may not be that beautiful, you as a person can be beautiful anyway. And you can even make beautiful pictures of something that may offend others.»

ReplyDeleteI cannot believe the courage and fortitude it must have taken to a)create these photographs in the first place and b)display them publicly. I look forward to seeing more of Tine Dyrkorn's work in the future
