Did anybody ever think that maybe she was going to cover up her ******? Maybe with her hands, or a prop of some sort. But all of you who are saying that it's illegal, it's her property, she can do that if she wishes. For those saying it's not art, think about the impact behind that piece. If she had a reason behind why she was doing that, then its art. maybe she was showing how cancer can cause you to lose part of your self, of how sexual assume can take away apart of you, why is it up to us to say that it is or isn't art?

Why the hell would u go outside naked, ur body painted in black, in the snow?!?! Especially for an art project!

Now ur just being racist. thinking that just because u paint ur body BLACK that no one can notice ur naked. If a black person went outside in the snow, you would still know that they were naked!

Sounds like a kinda dumb art project.

Don't put acrylic paint on your skin. It's not good good for it. At least most acrylic paints are toxic.

Why?

What was it supposed to represent?

I know this is old, but I gotta say it. To sit here and tell OP what she was doing isn't even art, is completely disrespectful. OP was more than likely doing a black and white photo, so with the blacks of the paints and the whites of her skin against the whites of the snow, that would have been beautiful. But no, apparently nobody has imagination anymore. They all see the words "naked" "paint" and "snow" and automatically start with the negativities. There's plenty of creative arts that have nudity in them, I'm guessing nobody is cultured enough to know this. Anyway, YDI for not checking out your batteries before you started painting yourself, BUUUUT, that also sucks because you did all of that work for nothing. I hope eventually something worked out, given how many years ago this was. xD

You deserve it and hyperthermia for being a hipster douche
