Conversation About Nude Art With Kristy Jessica & David Bollt

The internet can be a harsh, dehumanizing space... especially when it comes to displaying "18+" imagery!
In this episode, David Bollt and Kristy Jessica sit down to have a conversation about the importance of nude art, the nude art community and Model Society in the today’s world.
David founded Model Society as a place to celebrate the art of figurative nude photography, to embolden creatives and to create a community where this type of photography can be appreciated.
At 18, Kristy Jessica jumped into nude modeling. It was a bold step, especially with her religious upbringing that wasn't always supportive of such choices. But for her, modeling wasn't just about posing for pictures. It was a journey of self-discovery. She found a supportive community where she and other models could share their unique experiences. Kristy Jessica now models full-time and hosts the podcast, Sunrise Life.

Model Society wouldn't be what it is today without some very special creative talent from Ukraine.
Not only do we have many remarkable Ukrainian models and photographers contributing stunning works of art to the community, but our programmer and a member of the design team are from Ukraine too. We've been in touch with several and their lives have been turned upside-down.
Our programmer, Konstantin, has left his home with family and is thankfully safe in an area with no military activity. Our designer, Vitaly, has stayed near Kyiv to help protect a power station after his partner and mother have fled the country. And...
An honest conversation for men about models, pornography and the healing power of human beauty
Recently, I recorded a raw and real conversation with Casey Capshaw (of the Authentic Man Program) about models, pornography, human beauty and the healing power of art.
We discussed the hidden truth for many men about aging bodies, full-figured bodies, and different kinds of beauty. We took a candid look at why so many guys experience images of women through the lens of porn.
In today's culture, many guys seem lost and don't know how they should experience beauty beyond shame and objectification. We also uncover how models, photographers and artists are offering men (and everyone) a healing way to experience images of women, sexuality and humanity in general.
Sincerely,
David Bollt

My husband says, “It’s just Facebook, hunny”…
But it is not just Facebook. This is the society that we live in. This is the climate of judgment and shame that you encounter when you share images of human nudity as art.
It’s punishable for you to share images from classic works of art or a figure drawing class or even a mother breastfeeding her child. Censorship on Facebook is just a reflection of the bigger battle you face when you draw, paint or photograph a naked human being.
We do not create this body of nude art to shock, offend, or arouse a mindless lust. We create so that all of us may come to see our...
