The Memento Mori Reimagined October 10, 2026
Memento Mori Reimagined is a communal ritual and photographic experience created to help participants meet death, and transformation, with presence, care, and reflection.
The experience includes:
*Guided grief and death meditation
*Collective oracle and tea reading
*Victorian-era inspired photographic session
*Optional Fire Ceremony led by Kiki Keskinen
Participants are invited to take part in a Victorian, era inspired photographic session, drawing from historical post-mortem portraiture to create a symbolic “death portrait.” These images are not about literal death, but about transformation, honoring the release of identities, relationships, life chapters, or versions of the self that have already completed their passage. This is also a space for those who wish to safely and consciously face their own mortality. Flowers, props, and set materials will be provided, and participants are encouraged to bring personal objects, textiles, or meaningful symbols connected to what they are honoring or letting go of.
This gathering is for those who feel called to:
* Acknowledge a loss, transition, or personal threshold
* Explore mortality through ritual, art, and shared presence
* Use creative practice as a way to witness, reflect, and honor
* Create images that hold memory, impermanence, and care
* Sit in a supportive space for connection and reflection
