She writes in the introduction, one of the curators, Laura Oddo: "An exhibition, a journey that speaks to us in different ways to the destruction of the object loved. Stories drawn from shameful passions, declined by the greed of possession that destroys every feeling of love. Here, the woman is the object of desire. (...) Of course it is always a body to violate for fear of losing it. But you can not divide a body. Thus the exhibited works tell of women's eyes wide open abyss. Looks to tell different distances from a single horror. Husbands, lovers, fathers, brothers, friends, strangers met by chance, all predators of stories and lives. "
