My sister specialised in print-making Exploring through print-making. Some of her papier mache look like death masks, and that's on purpose because she was exploring the theme of mortality. Mortality interested her because of a number of deaths in our family over the last few years while she was studying. Hear her describe her work on this theme at https://audioboom.com/boos/3276557-fine-art-mortality-with-cath-hartnett.

The last photo is of a papier mache of our mother's hand, frail with age. Even through the paper, you can see the wedding ring on her fourth finger.
