Dying Alone

Collections

Over the past few decades, the number of Japan’s seniors living alone has risen sharply. Many of them are dying in their apartments, only to be discovered weeks or even months later by neighbours alarmed by the smell. Lonely deaths, or kodokushi, have become so common that companies have even emerged specializing in cleaning up the apartments of the deceased.Their employees must deal with the aftermath: dark stains where the corpse lay; remnants of hair, skin, or bones; maggots and flies, as well as the stench. Then they clean out the homes and sort out the belongings, something family members used to do.
