Our friend Hibiki Miyazaki is an amazing artist. Only recently did we discover that her day job is equally interesting! What, pray tell, could be so fascinating? Hibiki’s day job is making gravestones! Yes - gravestones. (For the company
Oregon Memorials.). I have never seen gravestones with such detail.
Besides the process of making these gravestones, it is interesting to see how people want to be remembered and what mattered to them in life – as well as how other people choose to remember them. For one woman, apparently, she just looooved to vacuum.
Here are a few of Hibiki’s day job creations, as well as a link to her Flickr page where you can see her artwork.
