This project made in 2009 explores the subject of art models – people who pose naked for money. Unlike fashion models, there are no strict criteria for their physical aesthetics. They could be old, young, thin, fat, short or tall. In most cases, art modelling is not their immediate profession. They could be builders, dancers, athletes or teachers, and modelling is an additional job or hobby. However, for some of them, this could also be their only source of livelihood.
