Long Legged Nude

I grew up with the conventions of rebelling. I remember seeing the first Playboys when I was 6. I had 4 older brothers. The ideal bodies, with their standardized and unlikely proportions bore me now. I have great fun creating impossible bodies that defy gravity and biology. I’ve always had a fascination with distortion. Hendrix, Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, the distorted realities of William Burroughs, Joel Peter Witkins and Terry Gilliam have all been important Art for me. Minor White said there were 2 kinds of photographers, “those who like reality the way it is and those who are dissatisfied with the world as it is”.

The definition of photography has undergone a huge redefinition. With the digitalization of the world we are seeing once separate visual mediums merging and over-lapping in unexpected ways. I took a photography class with Jerry Uelsmann in the 80′s – where he described how he merged multiple images with a 6 enlarger darkroom. Before Photoshop it was rare to find photographers working this way. The digital application has opened up the possibility of controlling everything that makes up an image, much like a synthesizer can effect every component of sound. The photographer decides the color pallet, not Kodak. Images, colors, textures, tones can all be layered, collaged and merged in new ways that were impossible a couple decades ago.

STRIPPED: A Tony Ward Studio Exclusive Blog Series – Part 4

.

……….Two songs seemed like a lot but I was already a pro after my last audition. I felt at ease knowing the girls weren’t all watching and hoping I’d fall of stage. I went through the routine with much less anxiety compared to my first audition. I felt comfortable and confident. After introducing myself to the bar patrons, I received an abundant amount of positive feedback – along with about 23 dollars in ones. I got dressed and headed to the back and filled out yet another application: although I really started wondering what kind of background you really needed to get hired other than being able to dance and have a social security number.

.

I was hired on the spot and was told to call the next day to go over my schedule. I left feeling excited and energized. I found my new home and Brooke Lynne was born. All I needed to do now was figure exactly what a “G-string” was and get one in every color!
