To me this photo is a brave and very cringe worthy photo. Assuming that the scorpion is alive of course. At any second it could sting her, and the pain of that alone would be bad enough but having it on her face knowing that it could potentially blind her is what makes the photo worse. She is a performance photographer and from this photo I feel that her aim to get a shock worthy reaction from the viewer/audience. I think the black and white element of the photo is to perhaps represent that it's a very strong photo that is on edge, the black and white make the contrast of the scorpion against her skin much bolder. I really like that she has mimicked the shape of the scorpions pincers with her hair.
