This sculpture is part of a series of works that Leon Ferrari began in 1994. Known for his anti-establishment position, Ferrari also has a side of his work that deals with intimate themes. In this lyrical piece, Ferrari combined his trademark mannequins with a poem by Argentinean writer Jorge Luis Borges. By handwriting the poem on the woman’s body he is establishing a connection of intimacy. The skin as first clothing represents to Ferrari a protest that hurts the most because it is impregnated in the identity and memory of those who specifically suffered the excesses of totalitarian governments.
