Antes e depois

Life Before Death: This sombre series of portraits taken of people before and after they had died is a challenging and poignant study. The work by German photographer Walter Schels and his partner Beate Lakotta, who recorded interviews with the subjects in their final days, reveals much about dying - and living.


Life Before Death is at the Wellcome Collection from April 9-May 18

[I wish they displayed the pairs side-by-side.]
