The representation of bodies is one of the hallmarks of the work developed by photographer and journalist<\/span> Eberson Theodoro<\/b><\/a>. The native of Santa Catarina is the creator of the project “<\/span>Foto de Homem<\/b><\/a>“, which aims to naturalize male nudity, presented in an artistic way. However, the photographer reports that he has been experiencing problems with his professional profile on Instagram, his main network for promoting his work. Even following the social network’s best practices, Eberson comments that the social network is banning his images on the grounds that they violate the platform’s guidelines.<\/span><\/p>\n

This month, Eberson had his professional profile banned from the social network. According to the photographer, this is not the first time that the platform has taken this attitude and, since the beginning of his project, about two years ago, this is one of the biggest difficulties in relation to his work and Instagram.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the social network deleted the profile with more than 7 thousand followers, Eberson created the account<\/span> (now under username @fotodehomem1<\/b><\/a>) for the fourth time. Another professional profile of the photographer, banned last year, had around 10,000 followers. According to him, all the work dedicated to publicizing his work on the social network disappears in seconds when the account is banned from the platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like Eberson, other photo<\/span>graphers who work with artistic nudes also face problems with Instagram. In 2019, the photographer <\/span>Pamela Facco<\/b>,<\/span> who portrays groups of naked men and women, in non-erotic poses,<\/span> sued the social network<\/span> in the<\/span> Justice of S\u00e3o Paulo<\/b> and managed to recover the account, after more than eight months off the air.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the website<\/span> Uol<\/span><\/i><\/a>, the sentence<\/span>, by the First Civil Court of Santo Amaro<\/b>, forced the social network to recover Pamela’s account, which had more than 6,000 followers when it was overthrown. In the decision, Judge Carolina Nabarro Munhoz Rossi, states that, in the case of Pamela, “it is observed that there was an incorrect analysis of the content published by the author” by Instagram.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2018, another similar case took place in the United States.<\/span> A college rowing team, made famous for their nude rehearsals on charity calendars, was banned from Instagram \u201cfor no reason\u201d, according to the website<\/span> Metro.<\/span><\/i><\/a>. Account <\/span>Warwick Rowers’s<\/b> was \u201cpermanently disabled\u201d from the platform, as announced by the team at the time. After the backlash, a representative of the social network said: “This account was removed by mistake. We have since reactivated @Warwick_rowers and apologize for any inconvenience caused.<\/em>\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n
