“What does nakedness remind us off? Dear God, what does nakedness remind us of?
Naked, our needs are so clear, our fears so natural. There is nothing innocent about the naked. Only the newborn are innocent. Seeing a naked body of any age we remember our own. Putting ourselves in someone else’s place...
Seeing a naked body of another person we make an inventory of our own.
Shoulder blade, ribs, clavicle. We list the sensations we feel in each part, one by one, all of them indescribable, all of them familiar, all of them constituting a home.”
