 BY SARA DARLING PHOTOGRAPHS OF WOMEN Hazel Hurley is more than a photographer- It is her intention to make images that challenge the view of the female form for her viewers, using a nostalgic yet contemporary context.  Her latest exhibition 'Concupiscience' is a study of the male gaze and the way that the female body is the object of Hollywood's blatant scopophilia, which recently showed at London's Freud Bar.  Not all her work is overtly sexualised as much is portrayed from her perspective of being a woman too. Experimenting in natural surroundings, themes of youth, femininity and trauma are explored, often leaving the viewer feeling more than a little uncomfortable. Distorting traditional versions of beauty, Hazel has a niche of juxtaposing man-made materials into real life settings which distort the normal view point. Buy her book here:

These are some very artistic and beautiful photos. I find the photographer's talent very amazing and creative. The photographer was able to capture the emotion of the model in her pictures. It's really hard to show the abstract side of every captured images. I'd love to see more of his portfolio similar to this. I know that he'll be able to show more beautiful photos to us.
