A little creepy, but very creative! Nadine Jarvis has created the concept of “Pencils made from the carbon of human cremains. 240 pencils can be made from an average body of ash - a lifetime supply of pencils for those left behind.” This is from her “ongoing research project looking to challenge our archaic post mortem traditions and to offer proposals for alternate treatment for our deceased.”
