BEHIND THE CURTAIN

'Behind The Curtain' is part of a photography series by the German photographer Daniel M. Schmude. Schmude is a photographer who is fascinated by the aesthetics of the human body and the characteristics it embodies.

'Everyone has an interesting story (which can be told in body language); each human form has its own aesthetic beauty. The naked body allows me to take an honest look at a person. Stripped away of clothes what remains is pure, a true representation. Each line, contour, wrinkle, the scar has a story and is itself a story. I often have difficulty expressing myself, telling my own stories and desires, so it is easier for me to express myself through others or help others to express themselves through images'' explains Daniel M.Schmude.
