Plus-sized women took to nude body painting on Friday in front of the New York Public Library to draw attention to sizeism in society.

The Adipositivity Project arranged the exhibition against body shaming in America.

The organisation founded by Kimberly Massengill, who also goes by the name Substantia Jones, is aimed at getting “folks to love their body”.

Mollena Williams, who choose to be a body paint model for a day, says she fights against negative messages every day.
