The whole world is a theater, it is well known. The question is, what will you be wearing when the curtain comes down?

This photo project, shot in Singapore, shows people in the clothes they would like to attend their own funeral. At the same time, they also try to explain their choice. The idea of such a strange project is very simple and clear: to help people talk about death openly and without fear.
