'Viktory' selected by Roger Ballen for the Human Body / Life Framers Awards - Instagram bans image

- May, 2019

Polack's 'Viktory' photograph portraying the athleticism of an ex Russian competition ballerina falls under scrutiny after reverend fine art photographer and judge Roger Ballen selects it for second place during the Human Body / Life Framers Photo awards held in London. During promotions of the competition, Instagram bans the image without explanation.

The photograph looks to question beauty standards within the media today. Polack's objective was not to spotlight or make commentary of anything other than the beauty of the human form and her athleticism.
"She is a talented dancer, exhibiting a prowess of flexibility and athleticism. My job as an artist is to observe and present the human body in all its shapes and sizes. The spectrum of the human body is diverse and multifaceted and very curious to me." - Polack

'Viktory' is part of an ongoing series exploring the female form, which Christopher has been photographing since 2014. He intends to publish a book and exhibit the series in London later this year.
