麻豆成人精品 Rocca explores how Tunisian photographer H茅la Ammar engages with the LGBT+ rights in her installation entitled 脌 fleur de peau / Body Talks. Ammar portrays seven Tunisian young celebrities, well known by the media for their political activism, with their head concealed under a colorful floral scarf. Because there is often something comforting, even relatable, about seeing a human figure rather than an unfamiliar face, these bodies, Rocca argues, endorse a sympathetic relationship with the audience and a call for a change: from the body as a site of struggle and control to the body as a portal into listening and connection.
