After Life
After Life gathers an eclectic selection of images on death and dying. From intimate post-mortem photographs of the 19th century to Salvador Dali's surrealist interpretations of Dante's heaven and hell, the objects range from the actual to the imagined.

Both abstract and evocative, the objects on view subtly reference familiar forms and functions. Together these works hint at meaning and imply their messages.
