- Society & Culture
Friedrich Nietzsche said, “Every living being can become healthy, strong and fruitful by living within a horizon”. Our most immediate horizon as humans is our body.
Welcome to Episode 6, “Return to my body”. In conversation with Bekka Gunther, we explore what it means to return to your body and your body image as something and someone you fully own.
From growing up in a religious cult, to modeling, to moving behind the lens to be a photographer and knowing she was queer, with Bekka we unravel a journey to feel and understand what it means to build a home in your body, through your body and with your body.
She tells us her story of finding her place in the world as someone who has felt “other” in between different worlds and cultures; how can we think of the body in our culture beyond owning it; and choosing Italy from the United States as her current home with her wife.
