‘Postcards to you’ was a way to say goodbye to my grandmother whom I've lost to cancer. I hadn’t seen her in a year and didn't manage to get back to her before she passed, so I've written her a postcard a month for each month of absence. I wasn’t able to forgive myself for not being with her in her last moments and in her last year, so this is my way to say goodbye and forgive myself. The process
has helped me a lot and emphasises the power of art as a therapy. Just like me, many of you have lost people you loved, so I am inviting you to participate in this project by writing postcards to your lost love ones, it can be memories, things you wished you said or things you have said at a specific moment, anything that will put your mind at ease. I hope to curate an exhibition with all our postcards as a final outcome. How to get involved in project:
1. PRINT OUT the postcard template attached here and handwrite your message to someone you lost
2. Take a photograph of something that relates to that person or to your relationship with that person
3. Scan 1. and 2. and send them to [email protected]
