UPDATE 03/23/2021: the _naked bits_ kickstarter campaign is now live HERE. DESIGNERS NICOLE ROBINSON AND DELTA MURPHY HAVE CREATED _NAKED BITS_, A COLLECTION OF ADULT PUZZLES. the jigsaws
feature images and stories from different decades, and, as the creative pair revealed in a recent interview with designboom, the project aims to highlight the evolution of society’s views on
sexuality and nudity while allowing users to enjoy that all-important ‘_puzzle climax’. _ FOUNDED ON THE SHARED PASSION FOR CURIOSITY AND CREATIVITY, DESIGNERS DELTA MURPHY AND NICOLE
ROBINSON FIRST CAME WITH THE _NAKED BITS_ IDEA BACK IN 2017 WHEN LIVING AND WORKING TOGETHER IN LOS ANGELES. in 2020 they decided to officially pursue the project and created _D&N
creative LLC._ with murphy living in new york and robinson living in italy, the two virtually collaborated on video calls and meetings to create a KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN which will go live on
march 23, 2021. _‘we founded naked bits to ignite conversations that explore the evolution of society’s perception of sexuality and nudity,’_ ROBINSON AND MURPHY TOLD DESIGNBOOM. _‘in
featuring notable photographers, publications, and moments in history, naked bits is committed to amplifying stories that force us to reassess our ingrained acceptance of normative
expectations.’_ THE FIRST FOUR ISSUES WILL FEATURE WORK BY BOB MIZER, SHOOG MCDANIEL, AND ANNE BARLINCKHOFF COVERING DECADES OF CHANGING PERCEPTIONS—from censored nudity in the 1940s, to
capturing the sensuality between women and their bodies, to celebrating different body types with fat, trans, and queer subjects in contemporary art. for example, mizer’s progressive and
sometimes controversial pieces are the perfect juxtaposition to the contemporary work of shoog and barlinckhoff. shoog’s work creates an escape— weaving themes of nature and fat liberation
throughout—with their use of colors and patterns; while barlinckhoff uses her photography to invoke pause and reflection, to convey the harmony of serenity, strength, and love. _‘in our
current world of instant gratification, where nearly every image is just a mouse click away, naked bits is here to remind us to enjoy the anticipation of something desired,’_ CONCLUDED
ROBINSON AND MURPHY._ ‘by pairing images that feature nudity with a game that inherently requires patience and attention to detail, we are invited to slow down, enjoy the build up to the
puzzle climax and maybe learn something new. what makes the puzzle build even more enticing? the chance to find the pieces with the bits of nudity before your friends do. we hope that our
puzzles encourage more appreciation for nudity and self-expression in all its forms.’_ PROJECT INFO: NAME: naked bits TYPE: adult puzzles that appreciate nudity CREATED BY: delta murphy and
