ABOUT


Informed by my career in the funeral profession, my work explores memento mori through the lens of funerary customs. I document the rituals (past and present) that provide a framework for grief, translating rites into art I challenge taboos and foster an honest public dialogue, normalizing death as an essential part of life.
