In his series of Nudes, J.H. Engstrom turns his lens to an investigation of the human form. Engstrom’s portraits are unsettlingly intimate, confronting the viewer with a disarming vulnerability and candor. Ranging from full body compositions, to cropped details, Engstrom’s Nudes convey a filmic enchantment derived equally from Victorian prints and 70s soft porn. Often tinting his images with subtle antique colours, Engstrom approaches issues of identity and sexuality with a nostalgic elegance; each image confessing the cherished requiem of love lost.
