Nunca tinha pensado muito nisto, mas está resolvido quando morrer quero ser enterrada assim:
“… Capsula Mundi is planted in the earth like a seed. Above it, to signal the presence of occupied space, is a shallow concave circle dug out of the ground. In the center of which, a tree is planted, the essence of it chosen in life by the dead one, the care of this tree is the responsibility of everyone. The cemetery will, then, acquire a new look. No longer the overpopulated urban environment with congested architecture, it will be a natural one in contact with the earth, enveloping expansive areas, entire hills consecrated to the cult of the dead. Summarizing, it is a different landscape devoted to the worship of our ancestry: a sacred forest…”
Capsula Mundi ( outro link que fala do projecto) é um caixão biodegradável construído num material à base de amido, em que o falecido é colocado em posição fetal, um projecto dos designer italianos Anna Citelli and Raoul Bretzel.
