Few words about this collecton

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

The “Neurosis” collection is part of the ongoing art project “Who’s That Nude In The Living Room?” initiated by Franco-Israeli artist and photographer Idan Wizen. Staying true to the core principles of the project, “Neurosis” features models who have never posed before, either clothed or nude. Open to everyone over the age of 18, the collection does not involve casting, ensuring a diverse and authentic representation of humanity in its rawest form.

Each photo session in the “Neurosis” collection retains only one image per model, without any retouching, providing an honest and natural portrayal of each individual. These authentic photographs are intended to become large-format works of art, up to 80 x 120 cm, exhibited in galleries and cherished in private collections. They highlight universal beauty beyond contemporary aesthetic and socio-cultural standards.

What sets the “Neurosis” series apart is its purple background, creating a striking contrast between the energy released by the model and this color, traditionally associated with death or the clergy. This choice of color symbolizes an outlet for societal constraints and inhibitions, reminiscent of the work done during the “Perseverance” series.

Through “Neurosis,” Idan Wizen continues to explore and celebrate human diversity, capturing moments of vulnerability and strength in their purest form. This collection invites us to reflect deeply on our perceptions of nudity and authenticity, redefining norms and offering a bold and provocative artistic vision.

we will really look deep within ourselves, in our unconscious, in our subconscious, the resources, the why...

2013 – 100 artworks – C Print – Edition of 4 – unique on its size

Each photo is unique just like its model and never touched up. This inevitably challenges us and creates in us a curious feeling of closeness, of belonging. Because these models are all of us.
