Research

I decided to concentrate on the Decay part of death to inform my sketches, however I got stuck as I did not have anything to inform me visually to continue drawing so I created a spider diagram for Decay.

After doing further reading on Death, I managed to find out about decay in the context of linguistics; the Decay of Language, and how it has changed since language was first used and why.
The other way of looking into death is the ancient funerals and burials, and the social and representations of death.

Concluding from this week I decided that doing the decayed leaves and food idea was still too basic and needed to push the philosophies of death concept further, by researching language and rituals I can look into how people remember the dead and peserve memories relating to them.
