Life Models captured on film the visceral reactions of students in a live figure drawing class that redefined the beauty standards for women with breast cancer. We surprised art students in one of their regular classes with an unexpected model: a woman who had received a double mastectomy and chose to stay flat. It was a first-of-its-kind experience for all of them. With Life Models, the nonprofit Not Putting on a Shirt started a new conversation among women with breast cancer and their physicians about health, choices, and beauty.
