Recurrent narratives: sublimity, transcendence and mourning

This research devised multiple practical exhibition outcomes that further explored these notions as primary function of the photograph or art object in both traditional and non-traditional forms. The author's own works are integrated into the paper as exemplars of the practice-as-research outcomes. The larger implications of the research were to continue the photographâÂ's generative discourse as fine art object to be analysed within alternative psychoanalytical frameworks.
