The body and its gestures are closely related to their surroundings; political and social actions always engage in bodily “interactions.” In an age of digital simulation, body images have been represented by the mighty medium of photography, creating a dramatic scene and giving the viewer an awareness of some sort, against which he/ she is powerless. By means of this imageproducing and -consuming process, the dominant ideologies are amplified, thus our very lives are affected.“The photographic recycling makes clichés out of unique objects, distinctive and vivid artifacts out of clichés. Images of real things are interlayered with images of images… Cameras are the antidotes and the disease, a means of approaching reality and a means of making it obsolete.”[ Susan Sontag, On Photography, pp. 137, 140.]
