Berni Searle

Berni Searle

Berni Searle (born 1964) is a South African photographer and installation artist. Trained originally as a sculptor, she is best known for her installations consisting of found objects mixed with photographs of her own body, marked in some fashion to suggest scarification ritual and displayed to suggest voyeurism. None of the marks are permanent; they are usually made with henna.
