French-American photographer, Erica Simone has posed naked all over New York to create a book called Nue
York: Self-Portraits of a Bare Urban Citizen. Simone is currently crowd-funding to raise $10,000 to
publish the book. She explains why she's doing the shoot;
"The point is not to be nude for shock value. I am
simply an artist looking to humorously poke at some interesting
thoughts about society and question who we are and embody as human
beings inhabiting this home we call Earth. It’s now up to you to
answer or raise these questions, as you like."

On her crowdfunding page she writes:
"Naked is who we are and who we
come into the world as. 'Nothing Fits Like You' is a campaign about
being comfortable with who you are as a person, with your body, your
mind and your role in society. It's about being free from the
confinements of societal expectations and the media's projections."
