Set On Stone explores the inter-relationship of subjectivity, absence and (im)mortality through the juxtaposition of graffiti and funerary portraiture. The show consists of wall paintings and photographs of tombstones from across Europe and North America. Memorials and graffiti both rely on personal context to describe individuals who are both anonymous and absent, Set On Stone asks if any trace of individuality can survive when public memorials lose their original context to the flow of time.
