sea burial

EXHIBITED AT LOOK, LOOK, SEE, SEE
LASALLE BA (HONS) FINE ART, OPEN STUDIO SHOWCASE
APRIL 2022              

Having once lost a family member to the sheer might of the sea, sea burial is a pseudo-ritualistic tribute to all who have lost their lives in water-related accidents. Luna has developed a deep respect for the ocean; she believes that it is a force that should not be reckoned with or underestimated. Nature has never failed to take over with time, and our human life hangs by a thin piece of thread in the hands of nature.       

Luna also feels that death is still a taboo topic in this century. They believe that just like birth, death is a natural phenomenon that comes with the cycle of life. Only when people are willing to discuss it, would they become less afraid of death.
