It is no exaggeration to claim that the human figure, particularly its depiction as the nude, is the most explored genre in Western art. The human figure evokes a wide range of feelings, judgments, and responses. One person’s pride is another’s shame. Sexuality is a divisive subject, and the human body sits at the centre of this discourse both celebrated and scorned, but always observed. I have photographed the human figure thousands of times over, in pursuit of a mastery that remains forever unobtainable. This website offers a glimpse of my portraits of people, from 2003 to now.
