Enjoy this fascinating interview of the history in America of honoring those who have died with artistic creations.
Through interviews with artists - writers, musicians, visual artists and storytellers - The Art of Grief explores how they use their craft to engage and re-design the architecture of their grief. As these artists discuss their work, a reassurance is offered - that though we might grieve alone, we are never alone in our grief.
