Jeff Model 2023 Watercolour (25 x 25 cm) unframed

Here is my story.
In 2008 I suffer from a severe pneumonia and spend two weeks at hospital with 8 days in intensive care. The doctors found that I had very low immunity and my white blood cells doesnt works well due to a myelome. After seven years of surveys, I’ve started my first treatment of chemio with two bone marrow autograft.
Spending two weeks at hospital in confined room and three weeks for the second one. I’ve started to model for photographers between these two autograft as all my body was changing, loosing all my hairs and I need to reconnect with this new body. I’ve made photos shooting with Catherine Passerin… beautiful photos of full naked body…
One year after we decided to make a new collaboration using clay to make some photos where I look like a statue…
I tried to give all my emotions in the poses to tell what is my mind and soul when facing cancer…
That’s help me so much and now I’m so gratefull for artists who wants to draw me from these photos.
