The Free Spirit of Nakedness in Kate Bellm's Debut Show NIGHT SKY RISING (NSFW)

There's no denying the sense of free spirit you get whenever you get fully naked in public. It's still a widely illegal and taboo thing, but at the same time fuck it, we're all the same, life is short yet beautiful, so who cares if we enjoy a moment of pure bodily freedom every now and then. Here to represent that free-spirited nakedness is British photographer Kate Bellm. You may recognize her from our profile piece that highlighted a series of her work under the same tone. So when we heard Bellm has an upcoming exhibition–her first ever solo exhibition in fact–we jumped at the chance to share the news with you.

Officially dubbed NIGHT SKY RISING, the exhibition showcases a series of Bellm's work that focuses on raw nature, be it mother nature or the natural human body; the series features a mix of landscapes, plants and her female friends in the nude, all interacting with one another. Shot all on film, her photos artistically represents the interplay between human and our environment. Adding to that, Bellm tells i-D mag that, "The most important feeling that I want to convey through my work right now is a sense of freedom and the ability to live with less and accomplish anything." Check out her images throughout, then be sure to stop by NIGHT SKY RISING at London's LAMB Arts gallery on November 23.
