NSFW Photo Series Explores The Beauty Of Female Body From A Never-Seen-Before Perspective
Professional photographer Roger Weiss was finding himself increasingly disassociating with the photographs depicting women, so he set out to capture the natural beauty of a female form in a different way.
Inspired by Kintsugi, a Japanese method for repairing broken things by filling gold in the cracks, Weiss' photo series called “Human Dilatations” features 250 unifying photographs that show how the female body is fragmented and then reassembled. Each of the interesting photos in the series captures a nude body that is slightly dilated and distorted, resulting in a detailed and never-before-seen analysis of every part of the female body. The whole series explores new perspectives of female beauty and the beauty of a naked body.

This "Never-Seen-Before Perspective" is somewhat old hat. Bill Brandt did it 60-70 years ago and Mann Ray before that.
It seems like most of these are distorted to make them appear taller. I wonder why...
I dont know how to feel about seeing women like this. Was very disempowering to see being a female. Awkward uncomfortable. Made the female species look ugly in such a beauty defined world. Thanks for the betrayal.
It's unnatural, even more unnatural than a heavily edited fashion shoot. I wonder if the choice to shoot nude was for taboo only
