Gorgeous photographs from girls in a collaboration program between ICP and the high school at Rikers Island here (click on the slideshow on the left).
The hundreds of photographs the girls took of themselves and of one another became a weekly window on their lives. One girl, assigned to focus on her body, took a blurry, postmodern-looking picture of her unshaved armpit. "It's my street revolution," she explained. "I don't shave."
Yeah, I'm sick to death of New York's grooming obsession too. You can't shock or disturb anyone with your pottymouth or your girls-gone-wild bag of tricks anymore but you can with your hairy legs. I think this piece of information is not to be underestimated.
