Participate in the Normal Nudes Photo Project!

The Normal Nudes Photo Project is a vulnerable and affirming photo collection showcasing local, nude human bodies in their everyday form. While ALL bodies are "normal" bodies, we don't often see them PRESENTED normally, exactly as they are.

Bodies are inherently neutral and normal. We reject their presentation by predatory capitalism and patriarchal, anti-trans/disability/POC narratives. Across our lifetime, we may experience both oversexualization and desexualization, each damaging in their own way.

And well...f*ck all that.

The Normal Nudes Photo Project normalizes the body, an ironically radical step outside the pressure to conform to a narrow set of (completely trash) standards.
