Like P-plate drivers, many of us refuse to believe that we are breakable. It takes moments of pain and legacies such as scars to remind us that flesh and bone is not titanium.
Melbourne photographer Jesse Marlow has put together a collection of candid photographs that documents people in their daily routine affected by a visible and superficial injury. Beautifully designed by award winning London design firm Purpose,Wounded even comes in a mock-plaster slip case and with a skin coloured cover.
Wounded’s 84 pages are both comical and insightful and show, as Anna Krien once said, that ‘while perfection is what we’re all aiming for, it’s the scars that give us the best stories.’ With a limited run of 1000 copies nothing would hurt more than not owning a copy of this incredible book.
