I Shot My Self
Alice Holden
(Culinaire)

I have always felt very free with my body. I enjoy it in so many ways. Aesthetically, sexually, physically and I have always been very open about this. People's reactions to how I feel about and present myself can vary. Some are inspired, some envious (wishing they could be more free themselves); some find my attitude offensive and others get turned on by it. Interestingly enough, some people can feel all of the above. 'I'm just being ME', I tell them. I'm a musician and a performer and I believe that being confident with your body and sexuality helps the creative process. I am more able to channel ideas when I feel sexy, confident and alive. I don't always like every part of my body but I do appreciate it as a whole. Doing this shoot was therefore brilliant as I started to appreciate certain areas even more in an artistic sense. Isolating body parts and looking at them closely made me love them in a different context, one I never could have predicted. Sometimes they even made me laugh! I love the fact that I had control over the shoot and that makes me feel really proud for it to be shown publicly. I don't feel exploited, I feel empowered and inspired and I like the fact that this project challenges people's ideas about what porn is and what sort of woman gets her kit off for the camera. I hope that by having my pictures and profile on the internet it will remind people that women have a variety of roles, bodies and attitudes and that they are a whole people with living, breathing sexuality that needs to be celebrated.
