"The Real World" I photographed an old woman in the nude. She was a very special woman, and despite her age (more then 90 years) an enormous life-power radiated from her. For a long time she had lived abroad, she was a prostitute in France. Her nakedness is perceived as a necessity of life. I want to picture the natural transformation of the human body caused by growing old. I perceive old age as the beauty of the autumn, which nobody can avoid. I catch the aged body in its natural beauty with its structures of wrinkles, and without any indication of  pornography.
