In the winter of 2015 i ran across small notes my grandmother had left around her home. There were notes with the history of objects she'd inherited, notes about who will inherit those objects when she dies, and notes with everyday memo lists eg. a reminder to make more letterhead paper left on top of a book about what to do when someone dies. I photographed these everyday memento mori and reproduced them in the print shop default size 7x13 cm.
