The (female) body is naturally wet, stinky, sticky and so forth. Yet, those aspects of the body are regularly concealed as the aftermaths of influential social discourses and norms. Basic bodily functions, like the menstruation, are for example often stigmatised and subsequently hidden from public view. Likewise, people who do not conform to conventions and openly show and express their bodies naturally are confronted and shamed. In summary, the human body is socially 'dried out' via hegemonial ideas of morality, beauty and gender roles. The photographs attempt to retell this dichotomous story, by juxtaposing a close, direct glance at wet, naked flesh with the title 'Dry'.
