Grief Garden Tattoo Project was founded in 2022 in honor of my dad, who I lost in 2018. Participants receive a small "Grief Garden" tattoo while we have a conversation about who the tattoo memorializes. The imagery in these tattoos originated from my painting practice where I was exploring the concept of loss as an emotional landscape with human shaped landmarks. This is an ongoing project with the goal to create space for grief and give participants a permanent memorial for their loved one(s). To date, there have been over fifty participants in the project.
