Singularity

The 14th collection of the project Who’s That Nude In The Living Room

Idan Wizen invite us to think about the multiple metaphors representing the shadow of the model, societal indifference or even the archetype of the idealized body.

Few words about this collecton

"The mannequin represents the perfect body without apparent imperfection. It can also represents societal judgment, the gaze of others."

Singularity. A point in space-time where gravity becomes infinite. A technological future where artificial intelligence exceeds humans. A system where the smallest change can have big consequences.

A universe plunged into darkness, at the crossroads of theater and cinema, in which time and space cease to exist to make room only for the hero. This hero, nobody like you and me, overcomes his fears and societal taboos by discovering himself, by giving himself up to the eyes of the spectator.

Anything that once seemed substantial loses its importance and becomes a shadow except for being admired.

Accompanied by one or more window mannequins, these, like the term “singularity”, can take on several meanings. Multiple metaphors representing the shadow of the model, societal indifference or even the archetype of the idealized body.

Singularity is the 14th collection of “Who’s That Nude in the Living Room?” art project which aims to constitute the largest photographic series ever made representing humanity as it is, in its most natural state, its nudity and its diversity. this concept of photographic art aims to bring together thousands of models, volunteers of all ages and from all social categories to constitute a huge gallery of portraits of men and women of today. These photographs, in their multitude and the originality of each one of them, their dynamism and their naturalness, show to universal human beauty, far beyond the restrictive socio-cultural and aesthetic criteria of our time.

Singularity: the collection where the anonymous are not alone

Singularity is a collection of the project Who’s That Nude In The Living Room, a collection that respects the same principles as the others of the project. Namely, models who have never posed before (neither in photos, nor naked), they are not casted (everyone can come from the age of 18), and who come for a photo session, where we will keep only one photograph of each individual. There is no retouching, these are authentic photographs of each individual, they are meant to be made into works of art up to very large formats which are 80 x 120 cm, and to be exhibited, in exhibitions, as well as in private homes.

Singularity is a collection based on black damask curtains. There are going to be several layers, three layers of curtains that will allow us to have a depth, to give a particular perspective to the picture. There are always black plastic mannequins in the photographs who will come to dress or in any case surround the model and give precisely a different and deeper meaning. And then it’s a photograph that’s taken using four studio flash, which will give us very marked lights, quite soft and at the same time rather disturbing, with luminous orientations that come behind the curtains and leave the imagination have a place to wonder what can happen behind those curtains.
