‘How can loss be overcome with courage and humour? How does artistic work shape experiences of grief, and how does grief in turn shape artistic approaches? What happens when we turn to our emotions instead of suppressing them or expressing them unfiltered?’ 

Reclaiming Grief is an artistic research and exchange project in which artists Edwin Ramirez, Veza Fernandez, Nele Solf, Sarah Sternat, Teresa Vittucci, Elizabeth Waterhouse and Jessica Huber jointly explore how grief can be reclaimed as a space for connection, creative metabolism and learning. Grief is not viewed exclusively as a personal process, but always as a political one, shaped by the struggle for representation and the right to be seen and heard.

As part of a ‘process sharing’ event, the studio doors will be opened to allow others to participate in the questions and practices that have accompanied the group.
