In a city were land is scarce and a push for 'green burial' methods is growing, ash scattering in gardens and seas has provided an eco-friendly solution, yet with our loved-ones rested within the vastness of nature, our personal connection with them may feel more distant than before.
"The Shards" is a place that hopes to provide an eco-friendly way to rest the dead while keeping them close as long as we need. Grief takes time. It is painful but natural. Sometimes we forget that breaking down is an important part to healing. As I quote from a favorite song: 'By cracking, the light gets in.'
