A Creative Practice Exploration of Unidentified Dead

Artist Katie Taylor explores the lives lived by unidentified human remains, through a consideration of the belongings found with them.

About the Speaker: Katie Taylor is an artist and PhD researcher at Oxford Brookes University, whose work explores how we consider the lives lived by unidentified human remains, through a consideration of the belongings found with them. Her practice-based approach aims to raise questions about how we consider, think about, and remember the lives that were lived. She often utilises unexpected materials within her work that act as a metaphor to reference the body, whilst exploring the sites to death to investigate remaining presence.
