Art Nudes

© 2017 Aliona Kuznetsova

Unlike most of male photographers I don't see nudes being separated form my other body of work. My work is about emotions and self expression and every "self" has sexual side. That's also the reason I often mix fashion and art nudes in one story and work with partial nudity - you don't have to be fully naked to feel sexual.

I am a little bit confused, a little bit irritated by this new fb/ig fear of nudes.

What actually happens when you ban nudity is it travels to shadow-net where nice art-nudes become lost among vulgar and pornographic fast-nude. Now everything is uniformly “dirty” and you are not in control anymore of the quality of the work you see. Imagine a child who grew up never seeing a greek statue or classic painting, who makes immediate connection between bare skin and pornography — this is a child of censored world, naturally drown see human body and artificially disgusted by it.
