One of three photographs
"We all want to breathe is a rejuvenation of the traditional still life. The life of a garden worm is as important to that worm as mine is to me, and this is what inspires my lifestyle and work.
"By changing the emphasis of the memento mori from human to the animals, I place importance on their lives, rather than use them as a reflection of ourselves. They are not there to symbolise our mortality, but for us to acknowledge as a consequence of our unsavoury practices within contemporary consumerist culture.
"The connotations of consumption are a hint towards our subconscious consumerist habits while the dead animals serve as a representation of the mass industries in which their deaths are a mere by-product.
"We are socialised into thinking a certain way about animals and this series serves as a platform in which I ask the viewer to think about how they see animals and why they see them in this way."
