How to have a "good death", is a topic which more and more people find important nowadays. Fuelled by the discussion about assisted dying, customised funerals, natural burials and the question 'what happens after', 20 people worked for almost a year to create their take on "The Final Journey".
They worked on various topics connected to death, dying and grief, which included their own experiences, how different cultures deal with death and dying, how we imagine our own death and about grief and those we leave behind. The group used guided imagery, films and documentaries, introduced stories from their own lives, researched different belief systems, read and wrote poetry and finally created an artwork reflecting their views.
Additionally to the exhibition of these art works, there is a program with talks, workshops and discussions.
An important part of this project is the creation of the first Wind Phone on Portland in Dorset. (more info under 'A Wind Phone for Portland)
