In this illustration by Sarah Carpenter, white line drawings of human figures lounger around one another. The figures show curves and folds of bodies, against a dusty pink backdrop.

In this collage by Sarah Carpenter, a face appears through a rip in wallpaper. The wallpaper, softly pink, like the tone of pale white skin, blends with the pale face peeking through.

In this photograph by Sarah Carpenter 4 unclothed people huddle up together in a space that is enclosed, with low ceilings. They look in different directions, off to the distance, down, and towards the camera. All of their expressions appear to be unsettled, or potentially fearful.
