The Posthumous World

Our bodies, our planet and the world that will continue after us.

‘The Posthumous World’ is an interdisciplinary, practice based research project which explores death, dying and our relationship with the planet. At its centre will be a new artwork – a scientifically accurate visual simulation of the artist’s body being assimilated back into the environment after burial.

This web site will continuously decompose and recompose the notes, designs, proposals, conversations generated as the world of the project develops. Please dig in and get in touch.

A collaboration between artists, forensic and ecological scientists and scholars of death and dying.
