Abstract
Based on the construction of a photographical image exhibited in 2003 alongside the presentation of the Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (August, 2003) as an icon of the internal armed conflict in Peru between 1980 and 2000, this paper presents a reflection on the uses and abuses inflicted, by way of an image, on a survivor of a massacre that took place in April 2003 and whose body thus becomes a battlefield for the memories of the different actors involved in the internal armed conflict.The journal Memoria y Sociedad is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
