Perceive Me started with a simple question: what happens when you invite other artists to see your body—really see it—and make art from that seeing? For over a decade, I've been posing nude for artists, asking them to perceive me as I am. What began as a personal exploration of body image and self-worth has grown into something bigger—a space where vulnerability becomes collective, where taking up space becomes permission for others to do the same. This project brings people together through the radical act of honest perception. It's about challenging the beauty industrial complex, yes, but it's also about joy, community, and the transformative experience of being truly seen. Every portrait, every collaboration, every person who participates becomes part of an infrastructure for body liberation that's built on actual connection rather than theory.

Perceive Me is a collaborative art project exploring body liberation through portraiture. The site includes nude figure artwork.
