A New York photographer famous for shooting mass crowds in the nude is now calling on Australians to strip off for his latest project amid coronavirus isolation.
With people around the world urged to stay indoors amid the COVID-19 spread, photographer Spencer Tunick has been capturing people in the nude at home over video chat.
Rehearsals are already under way for the project Stay Together Apart which will see 100 people from all over the world all in the nude posing for a group photo.
