Fascinating series of photos. Friedler photographs ordinary people in their ordinary garb, then immediately photographs them in the same setting nude, and publishes the two photos side-by-side. The resultant images are absolutely riveting. It's jarring to see how much clothes say, how much they change how a person looks, and it's touching somehow to see people naked and unadorned. It reinforces the old idea that everyone is beautiful and at the same time it made me think that I'd hate to have to change bodies with anyone. Highly recommended, if you like this sort of thing.
