Trilogy of Death

Karen Thompson

Scarborough, England


Curious Curiosities - Tiger Jars, Karen Thompson

Inspired by the Staffordshire pottery piece the Death of Munrow, the Curious Curiosities jars are a further playful contemporary response featuring the tiger.


The Death of a Species, David Chalmers

The Death of a Species references the over hunting by man and subsequent extinction of three subspecies of tigers.


The Death of Munrow (Copy), David Chalmers

A copy of the Staffordshire Potteries piece, The Death of Munrow, ca. 1810.


The Death of Sainsbury's, David Chalmers

The Death of Sainsbury’s turns The Staffordshire Potteries Piece The Death of Munrow both metaphorically and literally on its head, commenting on the simplicity of the food chain and the predominance of supermarkets within it.
