Also has undertones on the fear of it being touched or messed up too quickly. The process of salt printing is chosen mimics the idea of washing hair; and cyanotype was chosen for the portraits of Anamarie's younger sister because of the process of "developing" and relating that to helping develop her younger sibling.
