In Hiding in Plain Sight, Dafni Planta crafts a delicate and thought-provoking exploration of human presence through the raw vulnerability of artistic nude photography. Each image becomes a conversation—between body and space, self and environment—blurring the lines of where we begin and the world around us ends.
This collection delves into the idea of becoming part of our surroundings, not just observing them. It’s a study in balance: how we integrate into the landscapes we move through, how they shape us, and what we, in turn, contribute to them. Through her lens, Dafni captures the quiet power of transformation, where the human form becomes an extension of the natural and built environments, seamlessly melding into their rhythms.
“Hiding in plain sight is about melting into our surroundings, playing with them, and integrating what they have to offer, but also about what we can add to our surroundings and how we are transforming them. It’s about finding a place in the world,” Dafni explains, and this sentiment resonates throughout every frame.
The images are intimate yet expansive, presenting the body not as an object but as a part of a larger narrative of connection and metamorphosis. Light and shadow dance across skin and texture, inviting the viewer to linger in the subtleties, to discover the beauty in blending in, standing out, and the spaces in between.
Hiding in Plain Sight is a graceful, unapologetic meditation on vulnerability, identity, and our evolving place within the world. It’s an invitation to pause, reflect, and find yourself—not in isolation, but in the quiet harmony of belonging.
