Every Year Since 1974, This Artist Has Photographed Herself In Nothing But Her 'Birthday Suit' Photographer Lucy Hilmer has spent the last 40 years bringing new, poetic meaning to the phrase "Birthday Suit.
" Since 1974, the San Francisco-based artist has snapped a self-portrait of herself wearing nothing but a pair of shoes, socks and her signature white "Lolly Pop" drawers. In the series, she's pictured topless, assuming positions as ambiguous as staring into the sprawling ocean or pointedly powerful as gazing into the camera with a child feeding from her breasts. In total, she's created a visual history of her own life filled with equal parts vulnerability and pride, mystery and revelation. All images © Lucy Hilmer "Birthday Suits" began as a singular self-portrait, with no intention of becoming a life-long series. Hilmer took several photographs that day, but the one that stood out was an image in her underpants. So every birthday after that, she reenacted the pose.
