Of Course, It's Dangerous That's Why It's Fun, showcases the evolution of my self-acceptance and budding confidence into something akin to self-love. I chose to pursue this topic because as much as I accomplished with the works I’d already created, I wanted more. It was important to me to not just be playfully seductive but to capture myself as a temptress. I wanted to make images that go further, are more vulnerable and seductive; striking, captivating, and worth remembering. I believe I was truly able to capture the development of my confidence into something more. If you are wondering where the danger in these works is, consider the societal reality of a confident woman, being perceived as dangerous. The fear of female sexuality. I am no longer as dependent on the opinions of others concerning my physical appearance, which negates the constant need for others to tell me how beautiful I am; because I know I am.
I am beautiful and I am dangerous.
