Trophy-Hammock

Phobias: fear of becoming disabled, acrophobia (fear of gravity), basophobia (fear of falling)

War invariably leaves a trace. It is not just measured in graves, but in injuries, too; that’s why it is always accompanied by an exponentially heightened fear of losing mobility. This inverted hammock harkens back to the Neanderthals, who carried the fresh spoils of the hunt back to their caves for supper. The militarized Brazilian police torture suspects captured in raids on favelas in a similar way, suspended upside down and immobilized for all to see. The operative word for this hammock? Submission.
