在此告別人生

在華盛頓州的一個安靜住宅區,座落著一棟非常特別的房子,它是讓人反思、哀悼、喜悅、生命與死去的地方。重病末期患者來到這裡,在服下終結生命的藥物之前,他們是在充滿慈悲、溫柔與團體陪伴的氛圍中,度過人生最後的時光。這項拍攝計畫探討人們如何選擇在這個獨一無二的空間中面對自己的死亡:從社群間的連結、獲得照護與醫療協助的問題,到死亡的私密歷程與哀悼的溫柔。當死亡經常總是發生在緊閉的門後與臨床環境中時,這些影像則是邀請我們以嶄新的視角凝視生命中不可避免的面向。

A Place to Die

A very special house sits in a quiet residential neighborhood in the state of Washington, a place of reflection, grief, joy, life, and death. Here, the terminally ill come to spend their last hours – held in the presence of compassion, tenderness, and community – before drinking a medication that ends their lives. This project explores how some choose to encounter their own death in this unique space: from issues of community and access, care-giving and medical aid, to the intimate process of dying and the tenderness of grieving. While death often happens behind closed doors and in clinical settings, these photographs are an invitation to look at an inevitable aspect of life from a new perspective.
