The theme of the April issue of GENIC is "Capturing bare skin and bare faces."

We bring you the world of "bare skin" and "natural faces" that carefully capture the beauty of people. These photos, which give a sense of "life" rather than "sex," are like those of a mysterious and beautiful forest, and we look into the photographer's thoughts behind them.
