What does it look like to imagine a life time?
1000 Moons is an art installation and grief process of 1000+ hand-formed paper moons, representing every full moon cycle witnessed by my grandmother from her birth to her death. 1000 Moons envisions a lifetime as a tangible space where viewers can locate themselves within the full span of another life.I am sharing my ongoing process of creating the moons in a series of virtual conversations, an immersive video walk-through, and physical displays in public space.
