NEWS BLOG RON KUHWEDE: ewigundendlich: Questions for Our Own Death Culture
GoSeeLeipzig-based photographer Ron Kuhwede explores death, funerals, and mourning culture in his photo art project "ewigundendlich".
Through a series of 40 staged images, he sheds light on the subject of death from various perspectives, encouraging viewers to confront their own mortality.
Using humor and moments of surprise, Kuhwede challenges traditional views and presents death as a natural part of life. His aim is to remove the stigma surrounding death and place it back where it belongs—right at the heart of life. In many cultures, death is celebrated with colorful festivities, dance, and music, but in our society, it is often pushed aside. With this project, Kuhwede hopes to inspire a more open, lighthearted, and accepting approach to death, fostering peace with its inevitability.
The project, supported by sponsors, is set to culminate in a major photo exhibition and a high-quality photobook. Companies from the funeral industry and beyond are invited to join as sponsors, benefiting from the project's media exposure.
