“It is a dream, a naked dream. There is blood-red sun in the sky. Men and women ride into town on motorbikes. A naked motorcycle gang. Around and around dirt main square. Upon it a circus tent is pitched. They park in a line, dismount and enter. Inside they take their seats on the rough wooden benches. The smell of animal, hot earth, popcorn and diesel”, writes David Austen, artist and co-curator of “The Nakeds,” in the beginning of his essay about the exhibition. It shows how personal, weird, and subconscious our experience of nakedness can be: both as thoughts of our own, and as a cultural concept.
