Memento Mori is a symbolic exploration of the female body as a site of fragility, transformation, and abjection. Combining early photographic techniques with organic materials—objects gathered from the domestic sphere and bodily matter expelled voluntarily—the work constructs an intimate archive that reflects on mortality and the tension between visibility and erasure.

Inspired by 19th-century postmortem photography and mourning rituals, the project uses glass as a support medium, emphasizing the vulnerability and preservation of the image. Glass acts as both a container and a boundary, echoing the distance between life and death.

Through this visual language, Memento Mori evokes the abject as theorized in feminist discourse: that which is rejected yet persists. The female body is presented not as idealized or concealed, but in its full material complexity—sacred, grotesque, and unresolved. It is a gesture of confrontation and care, where decomposition becomes a form of resistance.
