White Light District

The 7th collection of the project "Who’s That Nude In The Living Room?"

Here, the anonymous is certainly naked but magnified, angelized by a white light synonymous with purity.

Few words about this collecton

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

“White Light District” marks the seventh collection of the groundbreaking art project “Who’s That Nude in the Living Room?” which strives to create the largest photographic series depicting humanity in its most natural state—naked, diverse, and unadorned. This unique artistic endeavor brings together thousands of volunteer models from all walks of life and ages, capturing a vast array of contemporary male and female portraits. Each photograph celebrates the unfiltered human form, challenging the narrow socio-cultural and aesthetic standards of today.

Adhering to the foundational principles of the overarching project, “White Light District” features models who are new to posing, both clothed and nude. Open to anyone over the age of 18, the project does not employ casting, ensuring a diverse and authentic representation. Each session preserves a single image of the individual, unretouched, presenting an honest depiction intended for large-scale art pieces, measuring up to 80 x 120 cm. These photographs are not only exhibited in galleries but are also cherished in private collections.

Elegantly encapsulating the essence of a chic New York loft, the “White Light District” series stands in stark contrast to the typical “Red Light District” imagery associated with nudity, vulgarity, and the seedier aspects of nightlife. In this collection, nudity is not only embraced but is elevated and sanctified by a pure, white light, symbolizing purity and sanctity, transforming each subject into a revered figure of beauty and grace.

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

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.
