About the Book

In this body of work, I deal with my insecurities about my body image and the direct correlation between self-perception and the way one is perceived by others. Photography is the medium that I use to tell my story through life, an outlet for revealing my thoughts and opinions about the society in which we live.

For eleven years Brooklyn-based photographer Jen Davis has been working on this series of self-portraits dealing with issues regarding beauty, desire, body image, and identity.

This photo series has been widely exhibited and has triggered discussions in national and international media.



About the Author: Jen Davis (b. 1978 in Akron, Ohio) is a New York-based photographer. For ten years she has been working on series of self-portraits dealing with issues regarding beauty, identity, and body image. She is interested in investigating the idea of relationships--both physical and psychological--with her camera. She received an MFA from Yale University in 2008, and a BA from Columbia College Chicago in 2002.
Davis' work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally. She has exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, MA; Catherine Edelman Gallery, Stephen Daiter Contemporary, and Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, IL; Milwaukee Art Museum in Milwaukee, WI; and the Galerie Priska Pasquer in Cologne, Germany. Davis is represented by Lee Marks Fine Art in Shelbyville, IN.
