Not a thread

Thoughts about nudity.
I don't feel shame in nakedness but
 - for me -
 the naked body is charged with vanity and vulnerability.
It's not who I am, in terms of personality, it's just how I look but thats also all there is.
That is all of me.
This body is all I got.
I love my body for joining me in this life. For teaching me about pain and about possibilities. Every day I get stunned and amazed with what this body is able to do.
 
I had a nude art photo shoot this week, and thats what brought all this on.
Beeing naked in a room with someone that I'm not in a relationship with, there's no locker room situation going on and no sauna. Just my nakedness a nother person and a camera.

And it was'nt weird at all.
Turns out I`m not that vain and I'm not that vulnerable.
I'm just a person, just a body and just comfortable with the skin I'm in.
 
Above is a small piece of the picture that's going to be published in the photobook "Just People" by photagrafer Cornelia Schmidt.

  1. Milla you wrote a wonderful text! It really touches me deep and makes me feel my work is worth doing it, especially in this times there people is afraid to be what they are. We are all born naked, we will all die naked.
    Thank you so much for trusting in me and giving me the opportunity to create art together with you.
