The Mourning After
The Mourning After invites people to explore grief in all its multiple forms — as something felt, shared, and expressed through different rituals and creative practice
The exhibition offers space for reflection, connection, and conversation, with a program of workshops that explore how creative methods can help us understand grief better. These workshops explore everything from personal experiences of loss to collective grief.
As we navigate a world in flux, reshaped by our relationship to technology and its impact on the environment, we engage with different types of grief — anticipatory, connective, ritualistic and, for some, grief as a life-long companion. Grief can be a way of meaning-making, a practice through which we navigate absence and reimagine what comes next. We invite the audience to consider ethical and creative responses to both tangible and intangible losses lived within our communities, and how these responses might help us connect to more hopeful, collective futures.
