What is the Embody Project?

The Embody Project is honest images of real naked people from around the world, along with their personal stories and perspectives about their bodies.

What’s it for?

The Embody Project is here to heal your self image. It will liberate you and those you care about from the harmful impact of manipulative media messages about beauty.

In this stunning body of work, Erica Mueller offers us a touchingly respectful reflection of our shared humanity. She helps us see ourselves, with all of our perceived imperfections, as perfectly normal and amazing. Erica’s work has touched millions of people by leveraging one very simple and powerful principle … honesty. Her images cut through the noise, offering us a simple mirror that reflects a truth that’s been hidden from us all beneath layers of clothing and culture.

The Embody Project does not discard the notion of idealized humanity, rather it makes the pedestal of human beauty infinitely larger and more inclusive. The Embody Project reveals a pedestal so expansive and welcoming, that every single one of us is invited to climb up, and see our naked humanity as normal and natural.

Through this work we are able to restore sanity to our experience of ourselves and one another. It’s healing to realize that we are all perfectly beautiful, even as we are all perfectly ordinary.

Support a refreshing vision of human beauty. Enjoy!
