In this episode of Naked Age, we follow the extraordinary personal revolution of Dr. Vian Aziz. Raised in Iraq, where tradition and societal expectations dictated much of daily life—especially for women—Vian spent years navigating a culture that placed strict limits on personal freedom. But in just the past two years, she has undergone a profound transformation—breaking away from long-held norms, embracing naturism, and using her voice to advocate for body freedom and self-liberation.

In this episode of Naked Age, we explore the history of The Neo Naturists, a trio of British artists who used their bodies as living canvases to challenge societal norms around nudity, art, and identity. At the heart of this story is Wilma Johnson, who, alongside Jennifer and Christine Binnie, helped pioneer this bold form of performance art in the 1980s. We take a deep dive into their cultural influence, examining how their work intersected with feminist and art movements of the time and how, after four decades, they are finally receiving the recognition they deserve. Wilma reflects on her journey as an artist, her personal take on naturism, and her contributions to this groundbreaking collective.
