where one object or viewpoint jostles another so as to give viewers
conflicting thoughts and emotions. arnberk@cal.berkeley.edu

These photos
are from the "Life Class" section of the series "Nudes,
Metanudes, and Real People." The series is meant to disrupt simple
responses to the nude, causing viewers to sense multiple responses
in
themselves, and to sense the real person behind abstractions and forms.
