Kendra Morris

New-York based singer-songwriter Kendra Morris is set to release her new single a quirky cover of The Proclaimers ‘I’m Gonna Be’ (500 miles) out on 15th September. She has been likened to Amy Winehouse with her soulful vocals and rock ‘n’ roll style.

Kendra is a tattoo enthusiast and her right arm is inked with perfectly perched birds. Her body art relates to her strong love of taxidermy which can be found in her home.

 The first bird I got was a long time ago. Birds retain their voices when they sing. They are all so individual. There’s no one bird that’s the same as another bird. It’s just been an attachment. Then I got nine birds on my chest. I have this crazy apartment that’s like an enchanted forest. I have taxidermy everywhere. – Kendra Morris in Interview Magazine

The art of HANDIEDAN

Dutch artist Handiedan creates beautiful hand-cut collages inspired by traditional imagery drawing upon vintage female pin-ups. Handiedan collects the vintage frames herself to house her computer montage and scuptural collages.

The classic pin-up body parts are collected from old playing cards, antique sheet music, stamps and ornaments and laid over baroque and Victorian backdrops.

The Expose Project

Activist blogger Jes Baker creator of The Militant Baker teamed up with photographer Liora K to create The Expose Project. An incredible collection of photographs proudly showcasing women, as they really are. Un-Photoshoped, un-airbrushed and unbelievably beautiful.

Women you wouldn’t normally see on billboards or adverts. Women just like you, with bodies likes yours, with scars, stretch marks, cellulite- everything we are told to hide. Undressed and baring all these women showed the world that they are more than enough!

When was the last time you opened up your browser and saw a beautiful image of a body shape that looked just like yours?
