Miyu Kojima Creates Miniature Replicas of Lonely Deaths/Kodokushi
"[While cleaning] l often think about who has lived here, what kind of life they had, what kind of job they had, and also what these families are thinking of this person."
Miyu says people tend to collect things: coins, stamps, coupons, shopping bags.
"I feel sad when the family doesn't want to take these things, because it's something that this person left, and it's something memorable," she says.
"Every year I feel more that people have been disconnected from each other, and I think this losing of connection, losing of communication is the reason [behind kodokushi],"
