    "A figure is sitting down and staring at the sun, while its thoughts mingle with the horizon. The figure simplifies itself to abstract shapes, colors, then nothing. After which the person exists again as an idea to live forever.

    This computer animation was made at the request of the UIA, the University of Antwerp, department of palliative care (PHA)."
