Sarah Cuthbertson

My dark body of work is inspired by my interest in the Victorian era and how they eternalised life, death, and love through art. I have depicted my ideas through installation, film, and photography in the form of self-portraiture. This project plays with Victorian Memento Mori that is often found on graves and jewellery. There are various symbols I have utilised in my installation which include myself, loved ones, and the keepsakes I hold dear The work embodies loss that has occurred throughout my life and creates a discussion of personal experiences within death and mourning.
