Never would I have thought to capture the [cremated remains](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urna-project) of any person, but Jason Lazarus does just that. With his [photogram series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) entitled 'Heinecken Studies,' he immortalizes a portion of artist and teacher Robert Heinecken's ashes.

Comprised of 25 images, Jason Lazarus' unique project seems inspired by the late artist himself. Abstract and exploratory, it is a [tribute](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virtual-memorials) that I'm sure he would approve of. For the rest of the photograms, visit JasonLazarus.com.
