Review contains a photographic reproduction with the following credit: “Body limits, Milie Wilson’s Museum of Lesbian Dreams - Disturbances (detail).” An extract from the text: “The borders of the body are questioned by artists working near the edge of their personal safety. Samena Rana’s richly coloured collages violently disassemble her fragmented life. At their centre is the image of the bloodstained knife cutting through an embroidered scarf. It symbolises the accident which disabled her and from which she died, at the age of 35, before her project could be completed.”
