Good Grief
Good Grief is a physical exploration on the different stages of bereavement loss. When examining Kubler-Ross’ seven stages of grief, I discovered that these stages are used prescriptively, when they should be descriptive. Good Grief tackles this approach with physical hands-on elements, straying away from typical paper pamphlets.
