How do different societies imagine the transition from this world to the beyond? How do they configure it, and what path does a soul or a deceased person set out on? The exhibition explores what lies between the two realms. It shows how these beliefs find expression in material culture. It includes representations in art and popular culture as well as what neurological research has to say about it.
