The body shoot is in conversation with the female nude and its various representations throughout the historical canon of art history. 
       Using solarization and working within the medium of cyanotypes, a 19th century photographic printing technique historically used for scientific catalog, we position the body in a format that defamiliarizes the nude and subverts its historic context. Using this medium, we challenge and recontextualize the presentation of the human body in a rendition akin to an anatomical catalog.  
             The body is singular and removed, swimming in a sea of blue devoid of any foreground, and censored to the point of anonymity. intervening upon the history of the nude as an art object made for the purpose of looking through the use of censorship; we disrupt the gaze of the figure herself and by extension, the viewer.
