"Memento mori" is a Latin phrase that translates to "Remember you must die." In art, it refers to a genre or theme that serves as a reminder of the inevitability of death and the transient nature of earthly life, encouraging reflection on how we live and what we value.
The set consists of five buildable elements: a skull, an hourglass, a candle, a flower, and a book. You can arrange the different elements as you wish.
- The skull is a classic symbol of death.
- The hourglass is a reminder of the passage of time.
- The flickering candle emphasizes how easily life can be extinguished.
- The flower represents the impermanence of beauty and the natural cycle of life and death. And because Lego flowers cannot wither, there are spare parts so you can choose whether to build the blooming flower or the withered one.
- The book has rich symbolic meaning related to themes of knowledge, learning, and the transient nature of human achievements. There is a "secret" compartment in the book where you can hide your deepest secrets or spare Lego parts.
There are 815 parts.
As a Lego set this would be a perfect blend of art, history, and philosophy. This set invites you to explore profound themes in a creative and interactive way, making it a meaningful addition to any Lego collection.
