“Dead Yarrow,” May 8, 2023, 10” x 10” (23,4 x 23,4 cm) RA-4 Reversal Direct Color Print

This dead yarrow reminds me of the dreaded “mushroom cloud” from a nuclear explosion. I see these prints come up in the tray and that’s the first thing that comes to mind. Can anyone say, “death thought accessibility”? ;-)

Death Near and Far

Quinn Jacobson May 9, 2023

"The Worm at the Core: On the Role of Death in Life"

Chapter 9: Death Near and Far

  • Death: Out of Sight, Out of Mind?

  • The Power of the Unconscious

  • Death Can Be Hazardous to Your Health

This is a reading of the book "The Worm at the Core: On the Role of Death in Life" by Sheldon Solomon, Jeff Greenberg, and Tom Pyszczynski. Quinn reads a chapter every week and then has a discussion about it. This book, along with "The Denial of Death" by Ernest Becker, is the basis for Quinn's (photographic) book, "In the Shadow of Sun Mountain: The Psychology of Othering and the Genesis of Evil."
