This is an island experience like no other. Be ready to feel vulnerable, powerful, and free.
We will create beautiful fine art that you could hang on a wall, but most importantly, this experience might also move some things inside of you…
Bare Idea is about brave people who decide to leave a piece of their spirit embodied in art.
It is an exercise of trust and acceptance, of rebellion and sensitivity. Of self-love.
“Nudity to me, is a metaphor for what we perceive as individual or universal, for what is sensitive, secret, for what we decide to tell the world about ourselves. Our body is so intimate and sacred that we create cultural norms about how to dress it, move it, feed it, protect it, and display it, and yet so universal, that it is the reason for the existence of all living beings on earth.
This photographic series is inspired by that universality. Naked bodies stripped of beliefs, expectations, and preconceptions. The subjects, therefore, are ordinary and brave people who decided to show their bodies as pieces of an ecosystem and leave their most vulnerable aspect reflected in art.”

I had the best time with Vanessa! She is the most kind and down to earth person. She makes you feel comfortable through your entire journey, and has great conversations. The pictures turned out absolutely beautiful! She made me feel a way about myself that I haven’t for a long time. Highly recommend it!
