Glynis Wilson Boultbee, "The Archaeology of Grief Series (Movement)", 2024, found objects and burlap
This exhibit of sculptural work, photographs, and poetry traces the artist’s journey through the loss of both her parents during Covid times. It includes reflections on the immediate aftermath of these losses, the sifting and sorting of their belongings, and the time when she began to emerge from intense grief into a world that was the same as it ever was and changed forever. Tender, heartfelt, and hopeful, this exhibit invites viewers to reflect on how we make sense during times of personal difficulty, and it celebrates the power of the arts to offer healing.
