Jan 18, 2014: Naked folks on Hastings beach campaign for Spencer Tunick



We haven't had a Spencer Tunick-related IotD for a long time. This isn't a "real" Tunick but a campaign to get the guy interested in coming to Hastings for a project.

Quote:
Up to 30 residents took part in a nude flash mob in wet and windy conditions on Hastings beach to attract an acclaimed photographer to the town.

The exhibitionists hope to convince American body artist Spencer Tunick to stage one of his mass nude photoshoots at the East Sussex seaside resort.

Hastings, Folkestone and Brighton are fighting for the chance to host the event as part of an arts festival.

Participants held placards urging the public to "Vote Hastings".

Hannah Corke, 25, said: "I thought it was really funny."

"It hasn't been done before. I gave birth five months ago and it's quite liberating to get naked in front of lots of people and get rid of that post-pregnancy fear."
