Wellbeing Library
“We have come to medicalize ageing, frailty and death, treating them as if they were just one clinical problem to overcome. However, it is not only medicine that is needed in one’s declining years, but life - a life with meaning, a life as rich and full as possible under the circumstances.”
— Oliver Sacks
Finlay Mills - With This Breath
On Friday 20 October, Bath Spa University launched an photography exhibition and 100-page publication of work by Finlay Mills, titled ‘With This Breath’.
Finlay died on 25 March 2022, aged 31, following the diagnosis of a brain tumour in 2018.
With This Breath includes photographs that Finlay made during a period of turbulence and isolation for us all, during the Covid-19 pandemic.
