Mona Kuhn is the charismatic type, buoyed by the energy between entities. Her photographic style is tethered by intimacy, but creating it was never a skill she needed to learn. Of her nudes – which most of her photographs are – Kuhn says, “my best work starts when people forget that they are naked.” Her subjects’ natural repose is such that it’s easy for the viewer to forget, too.
