A short course of intimacy for the Instagram generation from Nadia Bejanova

Nadia Bedzhanova is a Russian photographer and director, lives in New York. She captures the spirit of modern youth — her style, faces, difficulties and, as in this photo project, her understanding of intimacy. The most important thing for Nadia has always been to establish a delicate, fragile connection with the characters of her pictures. And she succeeds.

The photo project is dedicated not so much to nudity as to things that are much more subtle and difficult to understand.

But it is not a coincidence that most of the heroes of the photo project are captured in bed — yet this is perhaps the most intimate place of all.

In her pictures, Nadia tried to tell about where modern youth draw the boundaries of their personal space, and about those things that only the closest people see.

Nadia's photo project is a short course on intimacy for the digital generation, whose representatives are used to sharing a lot, but still keep something secret.

"Nowadays everything is on display. The shorter underpants you wear, the more subscribers you have, and the more hairy your armpits are, the more cool and thoughtful a feminist you are considered," Nadia ironically notes.

"In our post-pornographic era, it is difficult to surprise with something. We have the opportunity to see a lot of naked women, men, transgender people, actors and singers, celebrities and friends. Images of nudity for us have become on a par with photos of cats and dogs. Intimacy is still something else. This is when you see the inner world of a person who does not have to undress for this. And it gives a lot more understanding of a person than you can imagine," Nadia said.
