troost

troost is an alternative to the previous methods of burial and focuses not on death but on life and the circle of life. This new form of burial is not only intended to offer an alternative to the conventional options available to date, but also to make one’s own position in the circle of life visible and to stimulate thought about it.

The rites and customs associated with burying the dead are as universal as the phenomenon of death itself. As the inevitable end of every life, death influences our actions during our lifetime. Structures and mechanisms derived from the instinct of self-preservation and the fear of death have existential significance.

Our experiences of life result, among other things, from our perception of death as an end. The corpse, which was previously still perceived as a human subject, becomes an object after the onset of death, whereby man is thereby also confronted with his own mortality and thus the alienation of subjectivity.

troost is a living urn that can transform the ashes inside it into life. It does this by having a living core itself. The mycelium of an oyster mushroom transforms the ashes into edible mushrooms, and thus enables the dissolution of the ego after death into nature.

The deceased person remains part of the circle of life and transforms into life, can become part of friends, family and loved ones again.
