Life is a memory

Dead plant on shelf
35 × 30 cm
London, 2014

A dead plant, with its soil and dried foliage intact, is placed on a small wall-mounted shelf. What remains of the plant is both a physical object and a reminder of a life that has ended.

Life is a memory: a dried plant with exposed soil displayed on a white wall-mounted shelf — Digital visualisation based on the original photograph of the work.

The work was also conceived on a larger scale: a wall filled with dead plants, each displayed on its own small shelf.
