6: Skulls & Roses
Death & Tradition: Skulls and flowers are traditionally depicted together in Mexico to challenge the perception of death as a morose subject. The combination of 3D relief skulls in white porcelain and bright joyful decals of roses, symbolising romance, love and beauty make these functional vessels a memeto mori, a reminder to appreciate life as death is inevitable.
