On 9 February 2020 in Mexico City a twenty-five-year-old woman, Ingrid E.V., was murdered by her partner. Grisly pictures of the femicide, taken at the scene by the authorities, were circulated by Mexican tabloids, which had no qualms about spreading her dismembered body across their front pages. The complicity of the press and the police sparked a wave of protest, and a call went out to flood the internet with other images under her name. The work is built from that counter-flood, and asks what images of a woman may be shown and by whom.
