Punishment
2019
screen print on mirror
40 x 25 cm
This work is based on a picture taken during World War II by renowned news photographer Robert Capa. It shows a French woman who had a child with a Nazi soldier having her hair shaved as punishment and being made to walk down a public street, while many French citizens ridicule her.
The artist processed the picture into abstracts and printed it on a mirror using a silkscreen technique. Viewers cannot clearly see the original image taken in the past, but see themselves in the present looking at it through the mirror.
