Toiles de Maîtresse
Sometimes I mark the bodies. And sometimes I take pictures.
I love it when flesh becomes other, transfigured by my paw that is no longer velvet, a strange landscape that provokes reverie, confusion or fear.
I like the idea of transient memory, inking the moment into the layers of the dermis and remembering it in the days that follow, when the pain, bruises, abrasions, bites and impacts take on other appearances before fading away.
Put my seal on bodies so that we can finally say "toiles de Maîtresse" and not, as always, "toile de maître". Maestria, feminine.
Madam, Mistress-Woman.
