I came across this and my first thought was that it was just another nude site but I don't think so.
I LOVE this girls attitude and her interview. Thoughts? (maybe its because of her Aussie attitude. I met some girls in Byron like that) (carefree and positive). Yes, she is a nude model but if you listen to all the interview and how relaxed she is, its much more then that.
http://www.nude-muse.com/faq.htmlQ. What is Nude-Muse magazine about? A. Nude-Muse is about showing nudity in a positive way. Nude muse is about showing that nudity is not just about sex and adult entertainment, as is the current way of thinking by some people and a lot of the media. It is designed to show that nudity can be nonsexual and even a normal way of life. Nude-Muse is about showing that beauty is not a narrow band of body size or age. That beauty can also be found in people in their 30's, 40's and 50's. That being more than a size 10 and curvy is just as beautiful and just as wonderful as slimmer people. Nude-Muse is about challenging the common stereotype of the media, and many people's skewed view of the world. As a result, many people see an ugly world, with very little beauty. No wonder these people are upset. Nude-Muse hopes to show that the world is actually full of beauty if you open your eyes and mind a little wider.
Q. Some models are fairly revealing. Isn't that pornographic? A. What a lot of people are unaware of is that pornography and art can be a very fine line. Nude-Muse is aware of this and therefore uses ideas, and styles from traditional fine art, dance, and fashion. Sometimes the difference between art and porn can be lighting, sometimes, a posture or pose, sometimes a facial expression, sometimes an idea, sometimes a combination of these. Nude-Muse actually uses lighting and poses that come from the fashion industry. A lot of fashion poses (if the model where nude) would be considered revealing. So then, is fashion porn? Those are the questions Nude-Muse likes to ask, or encourage its readers to think about. Nude-Muse is about challenging stereotypes, and helping people to see that everything can be seen in more than one way. Neither is wrong and neither is right. It is just another way of seeing something.
Nude-Muse also hopes to show people that every part of the body is normal and beautiful. That it is a cultural thing to pick a body part as being taboo. Some cultures see legs, ankles and necks as erogenous, or porn. While others are fine with total nudity. Is one right and the other wrong? Nude-Muse hopes to show that the body is just a vessel we live in our entire lives. We have no choice in the matter. We do not choose to live in our bodies. We are born into the body we inhabit and remain there for our entire lives. Our bodies are just bodies, just as a bird is a bird, and a tree is a tree. No matter what meaning we put into these objects, the fact remains, that they are what they are, and will always be what they are. That is no matter how much you might want a tree to be bird, and tell everyone the tree is a bird, that fact remains, the tree is still a tree.
If you still have doubts, the pinup photos, and drawings people like today. The style and look that young women and girls want to emulate, was actually pornography of the 1940's. However today it is now just another "fashionable" look.
Art has always been and always will be the social conscience of a society. It is through art that we as a society get a chance to explore ideas, and think about them in a way that we dare not otherwise.
