Klaus Kampert's 'Not at Right Angles' series yet again proves this photographer's talent for [poetic nude photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1).

The series focuses on his subjects in a boxed environment, naked and alone. At the end of the box, there is light, which could be symbolic of the light at the end of the tunnel. Kampert's models are usually ballet dancers who can easily contort and flaunt the [physically twisted beauty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-kinetic-collection) that is typical of Kampert's photographs.

Kris Kampert has said of his photography, "By picturing nakedness in an image, it is to reveal mind and emotion, not only showing the body as such."

Kampert's 'Not at Right Angles' series displays his ability to capture [fluid body movement](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optical-flow) and grace in poetic forms.
