Vulva Obscura by Hanne Lamon is a groundbreaking photographic exploration with a camera obscura of female anatomy, intimacy, and diversity. By portraying the intimate spaces of more than 100 women, Lamon challenges societal shame and highlights the unique beauty of every vulva — from the 'mons pubis' and labia to the clitoris and vaginal entrance. The project celebrates variation, empowering participants and viewers alike to embrace bodily differences without taboo. Lamon’s images are both intimate and artistic, blending meticulous composition with a conceptual focus that situates the vulva as a source of life force and identity. The book has been presented at GUM Ghent (University Museum), underscoring its relevance within contemporary feminist and photographic discourse. With rich, high-quality photography and a socially resonant concept, Vulva Obscura is an essential volume for art collectors, curators, and readers engaged in gender studies, contemporary art, and the exploration of body positivity.
