From City of Broken Dolls by Romain Slocombe
“[Slocombe] takes pictures of young Japanese women wearing bandages, slings, eye patches, splints, Band-Aids and various wrappings of white gauze. It is a fetish that is both comforting—the white, clean, fluffy, soft bandages are a sign of love and healing—and ominous, as the bandages suggest injury, accident and the wound—particularly, as a Freudian might point out, the most serious wound of all, the dreadful imaginary wound that is always the source of the fetish.”
