Marina Abamovic: Lips of Thomas Series

Marina Abamovic uses her own body as subject and medium.  A photographer by the name of Ulay took series of pictures of her art from 1976-1988.  This picture is of a women laying down, head  down,arms stretched out in form of a cross, with what appears to be blood on her stomach.  A Pentagram drawn on the wall and what seems to resemble a swing.  Abamovic has a very dark sense of art, mixing satanic pentagram with normal star. She's a cutter who justifies it by explaining that by cutting she can overcome pain which was very cultural for her.  I found disturbing and shouting Mental Health at it's finest.
