Female self-objectification can best be defined as regular exposure to objectifying experiences that socialize girls and women to engage in self-objectification, whereby they come to internalize this view of themselves as an object or collection of body parts

Kroon & Perez, 2013, p. 16

Exposing the naked female form challenges the preconceptions that are carried forward when the body becomes a Part-Object. Forcing the portion to be seen outside its familiar context, no longer a part of the whole; it is declassified and debased to an altered function. The female body is condensed to the simplicity of a single element. It becomes “about the purification and reduction of forms,” Rosalind Krauss. The reduction is a means to question the values that are associated with the form. Does femininity, sexuality or maternal nature carry forward with the object or is it debased to an inanimate object? The viewer is led to question whether the object is the complete work and “to concentrate the procedure by which bodily fragment comes to stand for the body as a whole,” Mignon Nixon. Choosing not to show signs of the extraction from the body reinforces the work is a complete piece and can be interpreted independently.
