Publisher's Synopsis
The images in this book explore the personality and sexuality of the subject, as opposed to merely depicting the sensuality or abstract form through a received code of meaning. Important too, are the settings in which the models are framed -- for there pervades a strong sense of cultural identity. But most importantly of all, remains the collaborative effort struck between the photographer and his subjects. These are women who feel comfortable in their skin. The personalities are revealed just as are the bodies. In fact, it may be argued that there is no real distinction between the sexual self and body.
