Memento Mori

My recent works explore autoethnographic experiences of navigating a neurological terminal illness, being a family caregiver & the subsequent journey through the roller coaster of grief. My mother spent the last 2 years of her life unable to walk & telling me most days that she just wanted to die. This is the hardest thing to hear. With a terminal illness her wish was going to come true. Memento mori - we all must die - uses dead flowers gathered from the South West Coast path - the last place I’d had a walking holiday with my mother & where her ashes were latter scattered.
