With the goal of transcending various religious beliefs about death and burials, Thomas Series has created this public art project titled 'My Favorite Place' to signify remembrance.
Cultures from around the globe have varying perspectives on death and rituals, but this artwork demonstrates how contrasting views can have a negative impact, taking the focus away from the deceased. The sculpture by Thomas Series consists of an egg-like form, is golden in color and moulded to evoke "a sense of wonder," according to DesignBoom.com. This is certainly achieved considering the thing is massive in size and placed in the most unexpected areas including a beach, a booming city and even a desert to name a few.
