Hajek-Halke\u2019s composite images, made by sandwiching together multiple negatives, illustrated ads and stories in popular magazines, but also appeared in art magazines. Possibly aimed at women, this image of a passive female presenting herself for viewing nonetheless suggests the power and dominance of the male gaze.",
