“The need to investigate environments wholly condemned in the oppressive context of the Chilean dictatorship (1973–90) led the photographer Paz Errázuriz to embark on a project on marginalized subjects that she would pursue over the course of several years. She visited brothels: La Palmera in Santiago and La Jauja, a transvestite brothel in Talca. She photographed those spaces from 1982 to 1990, when her book La manzana de Adán (Adam's apple), with texts by Claudia Donoso, was published.” - Hammer
