In her feminist inquiry into aesthetics and the sublime, the author reinterprets the work of the American photographer Francesca Woodman. She argues that Woodman's photographs of decrepit architecture allegorically depict the dissolution of the frame, a dissolution Derrida links to theories of the sublime in Kant's "Critique of Judgment"
