She is Seen: Consumerism and our Sense of Self with Libby Tozer
Libby Tozer is a photographer, writer, founder of the She Is Seen Movement. She lives, works, and surfs on Ngarrindjeri and Kaurna Country on the Fleurieu Peninsula of SA where she is also raising her daughter.
I was looking forward to this interview so much. I came across Libby through a friend of mine who took part in the She Is Seen festival last year. I met her just after she had literally walked down the street in her black knickers and bra with about 180 women. She was so lit up by the experience of body positivity and women coming together to celebrate each other in a warm and welcoming environment - so I knew this interview was going to be really, really special.
Here's what we chatted about:
- The gentle leap of faith that Libby took when she sold her house, bought a campervan and a camera and taught herself how to take photos for her book Through Her Eyes
- How this initial small group of nude photographs has grown to be the She is Seen movement: a community of women stepping into themselves and being seen in all their beautiful, imperfectly perfect glory
- How our environment and society we live in convinces us to reject ourselves and that our feelings of not being good enough are driven by the consumerism, ageism, and the beauty and diet industries
- Libby’s reflections on the She is Seen festival experience, how she finds the collective energy difficult to handle and how the beautiful team of volunteers has grown up around her to support her and this collective.
We also dive into activism, plastics in the ocean, environmentalism, seed saving and so much more this is a beautiful episode and I'm really, really grateful to Libby for sharing her story.
