Yung Chen Lin is a Taiwanese photographer that goes by "3cm". These pictures are from his series titled "Red String". This series captures manipulations of the female form while conveying themes of sexuality, morality, and religion. He doesn't include facial expression, making it possible for the viewer to insert his/her emotions into the scene.
3cm has a minimal, surrealist style. He like to be very indirect with his meaning/intentions but has stated that sometimes it comes off too direct or too abstract. His main influence comes from poetry and is very attracted to the subtleties it provides.
I enjoy that his work looks effortless but is also powerful. He deals with current social issues women face by using the female form and making the viewer feel the pain within that form.
