Contemporary art and ceramics?

I need to find a topic for a lengthy research paper in contemporary art that relates to my work. My work is ceramic sculpture that relates to death and the cycle of life. I’m stumped any ideas about contemporary ceramics or conemporary art, etc.

headstones maybe, made of ceramic materials… thank you so much for asking this question
