Artist Statement
Going through loss is an inevitable experience. It’s something that everyone goes through and something we can’t really control. In those instances, it can feel like we’re completely helpless to what’s happening around us. I wanted Grim & Gran to be a film that touches on this topic, reminding everyone that it’s ok to grieve, while also expressing this feeling alongside moments of joy and humour. This film serves as a reminder to cherish those small moments, because it’s those moments that we hold onto long after they’ve passed.
