Body as Temple
Sacred Forms Through My Artistic Lens
Between 1990 and 1995, three dear friends agreed to serve as my photographic models. As a result of our collaborative efforts, Body As Temple was created. My objective was to capture the sensuality, mystery, and power of the female form through light and color. I sought to integrate symbolism from both Greek and Roman mythology. Aphrodite was the ancient Greek Goddess of love, lust, passion, pleasure, beauty, sexuality, and fertility. Venus was her Roman counterpart. My goal was to depict a 1990s version of these divinities. In this effort, I chose models that exemplified the concept of contemporary female beauty. One possessed the ancient Greek athletic physique of Aphrodite and the other two, the Roman-era physical voluptuousness of Venus.
