Grief Must be Love With Nowhere to Go
From Saturday, February 14th to Sunday, April 19th see Grief Must be Love With Nowhere to Go at Warrington Museum & Art Gallery.
It is a collaborative project by Chris Alton and Emily Simpson, who went through a significant loss in their mid-20s.
They found the English vocabulary for communicating experiences of grief and bereavement to be lacking and began to invite conversations about loss through workshop facilitation and art making, in the hope of finding common ground.
Through a large textile installation, publication, and seating made from reclaimed materials, the exhibition brings together some of these words, transforming the gallery space into an environment for refection.
Visitors can spend time within the space, where language becomes a shelter. The hope is that by going public with what living with loss can look like, we can better support each other through the inevitable.
