Descrizione
Analyzes the form of full-body tattoos of graphic concentration camp imagery, as embodied by 24-year-old California photographer Marina Vainshtein. Argues that she defies the scriptural ban on cutting or marking the body and instead physically inscribes herself into a history for which she was born too late
