Gifts of Time: Memorial Statue


MORNING STANCE

Van Dyke Brown Photograph


In the right light, the statues of the graveyard can reveal new characteristics and quirks. Some adorn natural regalia like dew-drenched webs, while others may bear gifts from the living like flowers or adornments. Does the statue develop a personality over time... or is that the consequence of us projecting and personifying it?


Morning Memento Mori Adornments, 2022. Van Dyke brown photograph.


Memento mori for the morning sun, and the mourning of sons and daughters. For the young and the old, the ones unaware...and the ones that have been enlightened.
