Artist Laura Dodsworth

The artist behind a project in which 100 women reveal all about their breasts has been banned from Facebook for posting a link to her project.

"People tell me time and again that the links get taken down", she said. "As an artist - it's really important for sharing and publicising your work"

She continued: "Facebook say they allow art. But they are deciding where to draw the line. This is art I think I should be able to share it."

"They're blocking images of real women", she told i100. "You are now allowed to post images of women who have had mastectomies on Facebook, but not this.

"Why shouldn't we all be allowed to show images of our bodies? An image of a man's chest can get shown."

Facebook limit nudity, so links to the article will be removed once reported by users for violating their community standards. As Ms Dodsworth noted, they recently changed their rules to allow pictures of mastectomies and breast feeding after public criticism. However their rules strictly prohibit pornographic content.
