Familiar British Wildlife by Clive Landen

meles meles meles A48

Clive Landen's work looks at the idea of capturing death, but though the use of road kills of British animals. 
All the image have been taken with the use of a tripod and have been titled or labelled if you like with the name of the animal with their zooalogiacal name and place of where the 'incident' took place, for this poor badger it was the A48. The text for each image gives the viewer the understanding of the image, allowing them to grasp the meaning. 
"Modern technological living, it is suggested, has distanced us from Nature and we need to somehow become reconnect to 'it'." (Martin McCabe)

"Barthes would later go on to say about    photography 'it must be described in relation to death'."
