Life and death as a concept refer to the way people generally think about and feel about these two phases of existence. Where I came into the world, Chaoshan. Most people have a healthy perspective on dying and death. An annual funeral service is held in solemn celebration of the departed. It is a significant event in the community's history and a cultural celebration. Visitors are taught about the culture by paying respects to their ancestors. Ancestral rituals strengthen the bonds of family and bring the clan closer together. Together with photographer Eric Yao, I'm documenting the ways in which people approach and cope with death through photographs and written reflections for this project.
