It was a cold, windy and intermittently rainy morning, but a chance to be a muse for an internationally renowned artist doesn't come around often.

Before sunrise on Saturday, thousands of people descended on Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach and stripped off to pose for American photographer Spencer Tunick, who is known for his large-scale nude shoots."Bondi is difficult. It's such a harsh place but a beautiful place at the same time.2,500 people stripped off for photographer Spencer Tunick.

The 2,500 naked bodies photographed for the work represent the number of Australians who die from skin cancer each year. As well as posing, each of them fundraised for the organisation, which is hoping to use the money to launch a nationwide skin check pilot project.

Yawn!...this is sooooo done!

As I heard they stripped for a skin cancer awareness cause. That's a joke right getting skin cancer to prove it isn't great ?

Lame

How embarrassingly cliched.

Grose

dingdong ..........'shame'shame'shame'shame'

Love this

Shrinkage!

NotArt

Slip Slap Slop.

I was there early for a nice tug

Getting naked and exposing skin to the sun for a cancer prevention cause/art!? 😕

Perhaps they should do this in Iran

ILL

A flock of nudists …

Great cause, bad execution

Nothing creates awareness about skin cancer better than lying on a beach under Australian sun and getting cancer yourselves! Think about it ! 500 ppl get cancer while they were lying naked at the beach! That’s some headline! AWARENESS!

Trust ABC to show porn and spread lies and immorality

It's lame hack art.

Yeah, nah…

🤡🤡🤡🤡

Look at the white bums! Only in Australia!

Lol. Just need an excuse to strip off clothes 🤣 Nude art i missed it🤣🤣🤣

Photographer just want to see naked ladies so he can get off back at his home

I was wondering why the seals were so pink when I first saw this.

the picture is disturbing and gross

Gee that sand gets into awkward places!

they all look like they died of covid becasue of the final wave and now are all going to float back into the sea

🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Imagine the smell

Hope they're wearing 😷

Butts

No one dared to fart… just in case!

“art project” it’s for raising skin cancer awareness and charity. hate the way it’s done all u want but at least some people are doing something in regards to cancer awareness.

Cool…

As far as beach attire goes these days it's not that outrageous

Tomorrow I'll be shaving my dog and suspending him from the bottlebrush tree opposite with Christmas ornaments attached to his bollocks for a photo shoot. It's my X'mas art project. Laminated copies of Lumpy available for $100 a pop.

Who is going to clean the sand after that?

The prudes on this post… who are you australia?

Where do you look when you partake in these things ? Surprised some chick isn’t breastfeeding here somewhere.

look at them beached whales someone push them back in where they belong

ok....

Are they all from the Anglo and European community of Australians?

Only male and female of course.

I'm thinking that what's worn on beaches nowadays, may as well be nude anyway

Do women know about shrinkage?

Yet when I do it... I get a criminal record...

When do they get rolled back into the sea?

Who buys these photos?

weather wire

store may insect came close bought box

Wow imagine thousand naked butts

'Art'

Isn't this getting a little old now? 🙄

At first glance I thought it was a bunch of seals lying on the beach!

'art'

I dunno what’s worse… that stupid white dinner thing a couple of weeks ago, or this pathetic bit of BS.
