The practice of using flowers in funerals is common, yet often leads to additional waste when the flowers are discarded after ceremonies. Recognizing the composting potential of flowers, I aim to explore their transformation into sustainable burial attire.
The practice of using flowers in funerals is common, yet often leads to additional waste when the flowers are discarded after ceremonies. Recognizing the composting potential of flowers, I aim to explore their transformation into sustainable burial garments.
The central concept of this project is to utilize floral waste to create biodegradable burial garments that enrich the soil. This approach not only reduces landfill waste but also integrates the beauty and symbolism of flowers into sustainable death care practices. When the flowers decompose, they return to the earth accompanying the deceased person and gift their essence to the soil, becoming nourishments for future blooms.
