Some designs don’t need a joke.
Ashes to Ashes is one of them.
Framed inside a pointed gothic arch, a hooded figure moves through a ruined cemetery holding a smoking censer, surrounded by gravestones, crumbling architecture, and twisting clouds of incense that almost take on a life of their own.
At the bottom:
ASHES TO ASHES
The whole design feels like something pulled from an old funeral engraving, medieval manuscript, or forgotten cathedral window.
It’s about mortality without needing to spell it out.
Everything built eventually falls.
Everything living eventually returns.
Ashes to ashes.
Dust to dust.
