Haydn's Airbrushed Coffin



Haydn's Airbrushed Coffin - To Celebrate the death of my father, and his life and work.
Probably the weirdest project that I have ever done. We decided to have a 'Green' burial for my father, you eventually plant a tree rather than a head stone. We used a cardboard coffin to fit in with the 'Green' ethos. As my father was an artist, I painted/airbrushed the coffin to commemorate his life.

 I faux aged the poem that I read out at the Eulogy and glued it to bottom of coffin.
 Handles were made of 'Jute'
 The green man, a pre-christian symbol of rebirth and renewal. These carving are found right across Europe
As our father was our 'rock' in so many ways, I painted a Trompe-l'Ĺ“ill, faux rock sarcophagus effect. This is a cardboard 'green' coffin.


Ludwig Van Beethoven, my Dad's favourite composer. Looking out for my Dad as he 'de-composes'. yes it's a bad joke but it's what he would have wanted...

RIP Dad, we love you.
