The book "Skin" is the culmination of four photographic projects "Naked Face", "Meristem", "Biopsy" and "Autopsy" by Izabela Łapińska. It is a summary of the penetration of the body shell, human skin, but also animal and vegetable skin. The photographic search for features common to living and non-living creatures reveals similarities in the structure of tissue, reveals unusual structures and forms, both imperceptible and those consciously omitted in contemporary culture and the sphere of the body.
The book "Skin" is a good excuse to change one’s attitude towards a foreign body, but above all towards your own body. It can be a contribution to reflection on the need for self-acceptance.
