What can you show in public? What can’t you show? We decorate our body – from tattoos to nail polish. Should we fix a nose or large tummy. Do we want to pierce our noses, ears, lips, or navels? How long should we let our hair grow? This art call’s focus is on bodies – from head to toe, in and out of focus, as a well-lit image or silhouette, dressed, or undressed.
