skull, clay, paper model, rattan weaving

The skull was an important object for the commemoration of the death in a historical period, on which people decorated, painted totems, painted colors and added jewelry.

There are also handmade clay skulls, whose lines are abstracted and distorted to make them less threatening.

There are some lovely little pieces of furniture and jewelry and all kinds of things that are used in this world are made into paper films that are sacrificed to people in the afterlife in the hope that they will still be able to enjoy food and consumption and all kinds of things after they die.
