Yurie Nagashima: Full-figured, yet not full-term, 2001

Nagashima: ‘The self-portrait means that you can take on both roles, as a model and as a photographer. When you have a camera on a tripod, you have the space in front of the camera and also the space behind the camera. It’s very symbolic. It’s a way of taking action against the historical roles of the male and female in photography’

Many churches in Japan are topped with neon red crosses which indicate that they are always open for anyone. The red color represents the Blood of Christ.
