Julie Balfour
Working Man
My project explores the premise that grief, whilst hidden, still endures and is an important part of healing. Everyday objects, half remembered holidays, family jokes, old photographs are altered by the loss of someone close to us. We become aware of our health and sense of mortality. We hold on to belongings and they become for us totems of comfort and remembrance, raised up from the ordinary. I realised, when working on this project, that for the past four years I have explored loss in many forms, and it remembers both joy and grief. My final product will be in book form. “He was always working to give his family a good life.” (Extract from my Brothers Eulogy September 2022)
