This footage I shot almost 2 years ago at one of Joel Belmont’s workshops at Lake Powell. I had no idea what I was doing, but I was so inspired by the beauty of Utah scenery and so supported by the people around, that I shot a number of clips, that I had no idea how to put together in a complete piece. A year and a half later, when everybody involved probably lost any hope to see the final result, I overcame my fear of video editing programs, and got my newbie hands into it. Critique is welcome, but please be nice.
As I was working on it, I realized that some of the most profound experiences of nature I had, were while posing nude. Even if you are not at all religious, you can’t help a very strong sense of being one with the universe, when you are hanging off a cliff, or laying on a mossy wet rock, or hugging a driftwood on a sandy beach, while salty breeze is tickling your bare skin. We, art models, have an amazing excuse to be naked in some of the most beautiful parts of the world.
So this video is a tribute to our planet, and to all the humans, and to all the women, who just like me, feel deeply connected with the earth, and the ocean, and the wind. We are all parts of one big Whole.
I hope you enjoy the video. Or if you don’t like beautiful women in their most natural state, dancing in sync with nature, ignore this entirely.

Yesterday during my self portrait session, I was throwing myself on a concrete floor and because I was going for a “wet look”, it was very slippery. This bruise on my hip is a result of one of my falls for art. I’m in love with its shape, and color, position, and the fact that it’s changing and eventually will be gone. Thank you @darkstripemedia for taking this photo.
Series of self-portraits I got to work on today. Light heart, heavy mind. Gravity vs. weightlessness.
