Beauty. It’s not a standard. It’s an experience.
Only you can rescue your own experience of human beauty.
Throughout history, images of humanity have been celebrated by the arts. But in the glossy pages of most magazines and commercial culture, images of humanity are being used to systematically bombarded us with exploitative messages about beauty.
We are all swimming in a bottomless ocean of lies and manipulation. Our natural desire to appreciate beauty in ourselves and each other, is being leveraged by unloving and impersonal agendas to sell you products and ideas. Beauty has become a standard.
Meanwhile, artistic and respectful images of nudity are blocked, banned, marginalized and misunderstood. This obscene cultural bias is so pervasive that we lose sight of the miraculous beauty found within each and every one of us.
Hypnotic pressure to conform to meaningless fabricated standards has us turning against each other, and against ourselves. Instead of celebrating the full spectrum of human beauty, we judge what we see in the mirror and blame others for making us feel this way.
Within the pages of Model Society Magazine, the best and most creative models, photographers and artists in the world are coming together to restore human beauty to it’s rightful place as a subject of fine art contemplation.
Our humanity, when portrayed as art, has the power to help us appreciate and explore the depths of our shared human experience. When we see ourselves through the eyes of art we have an opportunity to realize our unique individuality, as well as our transcendent oneness.
We invite you to break free from the cultural hypnosis of beauty standards and reclaim your experience of human beauty as your own.
We hope you will allow yourself to look upon each work of art within these pages with new eyes and reconsider your own unique humanity as a beautiful and miraculous work of art.
