Life and death are the themes which have always exerted an incredible fascination on human beings. The book “Conserving” is a sensitive confrontation with a part of our life that is frequently repressed or tabooed. Their virtuosic use of lighting enables them to breathe new life into specimens, some of which have been conserved in alcohol or formaldehyde for as much as 300 years. The images, which recall the enigmatic paintings of Hieronymus Bosch, simultaneously become icons.
