My body of work, Life + Death, is a visual metaphor for the interconnectedness between these two elements and how one cannot exist without the other. I have explored this theme through my own personal context, reflection, and interpretation. I manipulated the medium of collage, to depict the shocking symbiotic relationship between life and death. My use of the universal symbols for death and life was inspired by Marian Drew. Creating an absurd sense of juxtaposition by applying the principle of contrast, I encourage the audience to explore the inevitability of their own death.
