I’ve uploaded this as a larger image to allow for print sales. Model is Joceline. This is from a series I’m working on mixing ballet and bondage’. I’m trying to relate to dancers being tied to their craft and the physical scars and effects such an art form has on the human body.

This old camera once belonged to my Grandfather who bought it in Czechoslovakia in around 1930. It is a Zeiss-Ikon camera with German Schneider Kreuznach optics. Now the camera belongs to me and I will treasure it forever.

This is an image from a series I shot of one of my favortie models Jessamyn. I tend to shoot Jessamyn in different styles of modelling including fashion as we have become so used to working with each other, even though she lives on the other side of Australia from me. This is my personal favorite portrait shot of Jessamyn.
It took me awhile to find this, I’d handwritten it in a journal. The name Kuan Yin is spelled in different ways, but when spoken sounds similar in all of them. In Japan she is known as Kannon. In the ancient Sanskrit manifestation she started as a male, and transformed herself into a female. I like the concept that she manifests as both because it reminds me of the yin and yang. Kuan Yin is known for shape shifting abilities, recreating herself in forms that resonate with those who meant to encounter her. As with all bodhisattvas she may also wear the form of an animal. Look into their eyes and you’ll know. Kannon listens to and heeds the cries of the world, she is compassion and love. Here is what I wrote about her after finishing this painting: “Through mists of time and space, manifesting form to form, life after life, Kuan Yin shifts and alters herself. Fractionalizing, she appears simultaneously in far flung places, a magician slipping through disguises. Always present but not so easily recognized. Know her by her compassion. Beneath the human or animal mask is a face without flaw, smooth and unwrinkled as ivory. It is young, yet ancient. Her eyes are reminiscent of the oryx and gazelle’s soft liquid gaze, for she is luminous with trust and mercy. Kuan Yin is the cool, moist zephyr caressing scorched hearts and dehydrated lives, the shade of willow’s soft green leaves. Her love is an oasis for the bewildered and abandoned a wayside rest for weary travelers. She has many names, many faces depending upon time and place. Pause and partake of her mercy and affection. Sip slowly, deliberately. Watch for stray willow leaves adrift in the cup.” Text and image copyright Helena Nelson – Reed. Please don’t use without written permission.
