The Embody Collection

The Embody Collection is based on Lone Mørch’s intimate photographic encounters with hundreds of mostly Danish and American women from 17 to 95. and the book Embody: Intimate Photographic Encounters with Women.

In photos and prose, Embody lets you be voyeur to women's private thoughts and motives as they seek the freedom to see and to be seen. In her quest for a woman's complicated truth, she captures the startling interplay between the seer and the seen, as they encounter the light and shadow in their bodies, minds and psyches. In a world where the female body is still sold, shamed and legislated over, and women have to work hard to (re-)discover and connect to their bodies, to their inner selves, Lone lets a woman restore her dignity and retain a bit of her feminine mystery. Most photography of women has been dominated by the male gaze, but in this book women look at themselves. Phil Cousineau calls the book "... a healing vision for a wounded world."

Below find a low-res collection of both digital and analog photographs (drum scans). The full collection can be seen in the book.
