    Take Off Your Clothes and Live! is a 1963 British naturist film directed by Arnold Louis Miller. The laws around sensorshop and nudity on film in the Uk were very strict at this time but could be got around with a naturist story line filmed in a colony. I was inspired by the graphics and title of the poster as well as the idea of pushing boundaries and early censorship. I added my own imagery and iconography with the cheeky masked bunny looking out at us from the edge of the frame. The bowler hats with eyes reference the London Soho private cinemas where this film would have been watched.
