Exhibition

I came across this tidbit via Smut and Steff. With his collection called Uncovered, photographer Jordan Matter depicts New York City women going about their daily lives with one small catch — they're topless. From picking fruit at the Union Square Market to watching the St. Patrick's Day parade, these women have volunteered to show what life might look like if the words "fear" and "shame" were no longer part of our vocabularies. With men able to walk around topless whenever they please, Matter's photography aims to show a world where women do not carry the painful weight of history on our chests.Jordanmatter

Take a moment to check out Uncovered, and you can also view news clips showing Matter's interesting and often humorous photographic process.
