Immortals

My etchings focus on vanitas; the transience of life and the certainty of death. Using animals that we encounter on a daily basis, either in the country side or the city, I draw attention to how precarious life can be in our world. Inspired by the Victorian photographs of the dead my etchings capture the animal in the initial stage of death before the inevitable process of decay can begin.
