Presenting a sexy look back through the history of the modern nude in Melbourne with NUDES of CHONG 2022 @rosechonghire U🤩U
My first daring subject
for the durational portrait project live in a shop window in Fitzroy was the extraordinary high style local chic Eryca Green @erycagreen (pictured) oil on panel. This encounter lead to further collaborations as studio photographer and finalist in The Olive Cotton Award in 2023.
10 days of painting flesh (each 2 hrs) followed by a street fashion parade to reveal the best. See more on my fancy NEW website under PROJECTS 👈🏼
BE A NUDE of CHONG
Come be Ahn Do’ed but try it nude
The artist will make you feel seclude
Audience peers through window pane
But only sees the artist’s pain
As you behind a curtain sleep
And dream as public try to peep
It’s art it’s life it’s a costume shop
And then you hear ‘its time to stop’
Tits and bits, curves and bones
hair and prickles, whatever you own
Don’t be shy, mound, muff or schlong
Reveal your zeel in the House of Chong
