Publisher's Synopsis
Made in response to 9/11, esteemed photographer John Coplans offers a startling book that builds on his earlier work, A Body. Taking two separate images of his own body parts and joining them together, Coplans has produced a series of images that reference the shocking alienation of life from bodies that came with the horrific search through ground zero for the remains of the dead. Produced while Coplans himself was losing his own eyesight, this book represents not only a monumental accomplishment for him, but a testimony to the way that we see art - with our minds.
