The Torture Rack

Cracking, stretching and snapping, sinews become joined by annihilation, pouring crimson rivers and tears over the wood. The body torn, having been pulled in maximum tension–facilitated by the binding of the extremities to the two ends of the rack. This torture is one that has existed before and after its material invention and medieval practice, as in my experience it serves as imagery for the bifurcation of the social body into a symbolic binary.
