Ibiza is one of those rare places where you can see and feel the incredible dimension of natural beauty in the world. The island features seas and skies full of vivid greens and blues, and the rugged, vast landscapes blend into an impressive canvas of ever-changing art. The simple, subtle magic that Ibiza holds has been mesmerising people for centuries.
Ibiza Nudes is one of my earliest and longest running photography projects. I set out to celebrate female beauty and show a lesser seen side of feminine allure, while at the same time creating strong, compelling visual narratives that will captivate the viewer and, hopefully, stand the test of time.
The collection presented here is my interpretation of various manifestations of the sensuality of womanhood, set against the stunning natural landscape of Ibiza. For me, this project is an homage to the island, with the female form echoing the landscape and highlighting the synergy between femininity, in all its incarnations, and nature.
