DAILY PHOTO: Artifacts of Torture

By Berniegourley @berniegourley

Taken in October of 2012 at Tuol Sleng in Phnom Penh.

The artworks high in the frame demonstrate how the otherwise nondescript implements of torture were used. These were a couple of the more disturbing exhibits at Tuol Sleng Museum. Tuol Sleng was a school that the Khmer Rouge pressed into use as a prison and center of torture.
