    Heavenly Heights | 2014

There is a widespread obsession with women's breasts, their ideal shape and perfect size. For decades, ambitious outdoorsmen have strived to conquer the highest summits across the globe.

The end result is an even more curvaceous bustline. The series consists of ten pieces.
