A site-adapted participatory intervention to challenge and re-imagine the western notion of a cemetery.

Why are the rituals, spaces and artefacts of a cemetery the way they are, and how might they be re-imagined? How might a cemetery look different? What does an experience of remembrance consist of? What is analog, what is digital, what is in-between?

In Future Cemeteries, the physical space is re-imagined to emphasise personal reflection and feeling, together or individually:

• minimal built structures create reflection spaces, entered by a meditation path.

• a making corner allows for visitors to write or create artefacts inspired by their reflections, for themselves or in honour of their loved one

• the headstone is re-imagined as a living, democratised space rather than a static personalised marker for each deceased. Digital screens show content submitted by loved ones, both local and remote
