(Pic) Mathieu Lehanneur’s Ceramic Urns Map Human Population
Designer Mathieu Lehanneur has created a series of haunting urns that map out the human population of an individual country using the shape of the object.
The ceramic jars each have 100 layers which represent one year of life; birth being on the bottom, and death on top. The circumference of each layer is dictated by the number of people of that age in each country.
