From Earth to Earth: The Lost Art of Dying In America (2023)

In America, end-of-life choices are treated as a one-size-fits-all product, whose rituals separate us from the realities of human mortality. This project follows those who work side by side with the dying and the dead, who offer an alternative path for returning our bodies to the embrace of the Earth.
