Missed connections, wrong turns. Impermanence and loss before death, an examination of my grief after the death of my grandfather. I’d never experienced death, but I’d experienced loss. Loss without death had been passive; I knew these people, no longer in my life, were still there, somewhere. There was very little to come to terms with. Death requires searching: is he here in photos, in voicemails, in an afterlife? The creation of this project has been a matter of processing, not just the loss of my grandfather, but understanding how my body reacts to change, whether the loss matters to me now or did in the past.
