“We have an opportunity to raise awareness about skin checks and I’m honoured … to come here, make my art and just celebrate the body and protection,” Tunick said at the beach on a crisp spring morning in Sydney. Participants pose nude at sunrise on Sydney’s Bondi Beach for U.S. art photographer Spencer Tunick, to raise awareness for skin cancer, Saturday, Nov. 26, 2022.A participant, Robyn Lindner, said she overcame nerves to strip for the shoot, which organizers said involved 2,500 people.
“I was secretly terrified last night I have to confess I was thinking, ‘What have I done?’ But it was great, everyone was a really good vibe, everyone was really respectful and it just felt really fun,” Lindner told Reuters. Tunick last directed a mass shoot in Sydney in 2010, when 5,200 Australians posed naked at the Sydney Opera House.
