Seventeen animal skulls arranged in a tight, symmetrical grid form the silhouette of a larger skull against a textured gray ground, creating a haunting visual paradox of life and death. The monochromatic black and white photograph uses careful composition and repetition to transform individual remains into a memento mori that is both clinical and conceptual. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
