Pride

Pride /prʌɪd/ noun

              consciousness of one’s own dignity.

As society continues to tell us what it means to be beautiful, it can be hard to love your own body. This project explores the lost feeling of pride and ownership of one’s body. All subjects photographed in this ongoing series are strangers that are knowingly making themselves visible to the artist and the audience – strangers that are comfortable in their own skin and are not afraid to show it.
