In Memoriam

In Memoriam is a body of work that responds to the pervasive trepidation, unease, and latent sense of apocalyptic inevitability that pervade contemporary life. 

On 28th January 2025, the Doomsday Clock was advanced by one second, now standing at 89 seconds to midnight, the closest it has been since its inception in 1947. The clock, a symbolic gauge of humanities proximity to self-destruction, positions midnight as the end of civilisation itself. 

Conceived as a cathartic reflection on these anxieties, In Memoriam engages with the pervasive uncertainty and quiet dread that shape our collective consciousness. Drawing upon mediated imagery, fragments of memory, and dreamlike impressions culled from the ceaseless torrent of visual culture, the work seeks to articulate the disorientation of moving through a world teetering on the brink. Across photography, print, and textile, the series becomes both an act of mourning and a document of persistence, a contemplation of life’s passage amidst the slow, inevitable drift toward catastrophe.
