The Catacombs of Paris holds the remains of 6 million people and is part of a series of tunnel networks under the city which stretches more than 280 kilometers (174 miles) long. No one knows exactly how far the tunnels extend in total as there are many paths still unmapped and even undiscovered. The tunnels were created in order to extract Lutetian limestone which was used for for building material. Parts of the Louvre, the Place de la Concorde and Les Invalides were all built with limestone obtained from this vast tunnel system. The catacombs only take up a small portion of the tunnel system and is the only part that is legally accessible. In the late 1700s, the ossuary was built to address the problem of overflowing cemeteries. Until the early 19th century, the ossuary had largely been forgotten until it became a novelty place for concerts and other private events. The network is mostly intact today and is regularily toured by urban explorers or so called "Cataphiles". #paris #catacombsofparis (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3SJbjelvjI/?igshid=b3oevl0eay38

Memento mori... “remember you will die” in Latin. The main inspiration for my skull tattoo. I thank my mum for my fixation on time/ death. From the catacombes, Paris. 💀💜 . . . #tamron10_24 #melbourneartist #catacombesdeparis #catacombsofparis #mementomori #darkartist #darksurrealism #skullart #deadart #morbidart #eerie #skull💀 #aussieabroad #weirdoart #horrorart #morbid (at Les Catacombes de Paris) https://www.instagram.com/p/By-Cdr1n9rt/?igshid=13f4sx9fqkeo9

Just found a cache of these vintage Skull-A-Day silkscreen posters from day 195 of my original project back in December of 2007. The 2-color print (silver & red ink on brown paper) was made from a photo I took in the Catacombs of Paris and a contour line drawing of skulls I created for an earlier day in the project. The remaining stock is now for sale HERE.
