Dr Lakra creates a tension between the beauty of the subject in a vintage print and the new "tattoos" that he has penned onto her skin. Her mysterious, faraway gaze is subverted and made grotesque by the addition of a Kiss mask and a body sleeve, which Dr Lakra inks on her likeness as if the paper of the canvas is a human skin.
