This design was created as a reflection on the fragility and reverence of life, inspired by old folklore and memento mori art. The hand holding the skull speaks of both mortality and guardianship — a reminder that even in decay, there is beauty, story and stillness.
Etched into slate, a stone that feels ancient under the fingertips, it becomes a quiet altar piece to impermanence, shadow and remembrance.
