Kleine Anstaltsdecke | Small Prison Blanket

In August 2008, previously unknown photos of the prison cells of the RAF terrorists are discovered, taken after their deaths in 1977. Despite the protective prison blanket, Gudrun Ensslin's dead legs can be seen in a picture, published in the daily newspaper. Trying to get the picture out of my head, I print it and cover them with a second, small printed prison blanket.
