JO[URN]EY
Each of us will die once. When and how we do not know and we can not influence it. What we can influence, however, is our consciousness and our perception in the here & now.
JO[URN]EY is an object that should remind us of this fact. Being aware of our own evanescence already during our lifetime (=mortality salience) allows us to recognize and enjoy the important things in life.
By its mere presence in the living space or in everyday use as a vessel,
JO[URN]EY reminds you of the moment when you realized for yourself that life is precious and can be over at any time.
Through its presence, it relativizes supposed problems of everyday life and contributes to a fulfilled life, until it finally changes its form and function forever.
The vessel is made of raw unglazed porcelain. The natural, softly polished surface and the timeless design language should withstand future trends. As a symbol of elevation and appreciation, the customizable base distinguishes this vessel from other objects in the living space.
The deliberate choice of durable materials that develop a patina over time provides insight into how they were used during the owner’s lifetime. JO[URN]EY is a companion on the journey of life.
When the journey of life is over, the vessel is turned 180° and houses the ash capsule of the deceased inside. The metal plate on the top of the urn can be customized with an inscription. JO[URN]EY symbolizes a way of life that remains visible beyond death in the form of an urn and enriched the life of the deceased person.
