Revolving subjects around the transience and finitude of human life, Collishaw presents the "eternal" theme in a contemporary manner while retaining classical imagery. The reproductions intentionally appear incomplete, resembling a partially printed image on a sheet of paper due to an ink shortage in the printer. This artistic choice prompts viewers to reflect on the brevity of moments, even amidst our fast-paced technological era.
