As a designer, I'll always hope to create work that is rooted in research and carefully crafted such that it resonates authentically and meaningfully with my audience. I gravitate towards creating work that promotes introspection and emotional grounding. 'Grief, As I Know It Now' was created from a sense of feeling lost in my own understanding of grief as it unfolded in my life. In wanting to understand myself, I questioned where my expectations of grief came from, I asked how society collectively understands grief, and whether the issue was not with the way I was grieving, but with the limited ways we currently recognise and value loss. This project is an attempt to close that gap in understanding, for myself and for my audience. While grief is often understood as an emotional response to bereavement, my work explores grief beyond its familiar emotional expressions, focusing on non-death losses as they lack forms of social validation and rituals for processing. I designed a workshop where participants responded to sensory prompts to share personal experiences of non-death grief through drawings. Their responses revealed how grief embeds itself in different aspects of our lived experience in ways that aren't always obvious or intense, instead, in ways that are subtle, in seemingly ordinary yet deeply personal moments which requires time and intention to fully understand. Grief exists, not just as emotion, but across memory, feeling, thoughts, actions, and perception, across time which has no limit. These findings were translated into design outcomes that create multiple ways for the project’s audience to re-encounter and re-visit their understandings of grief. My work does not attempt to redefine grief, but encourages a more empathetic way of approaching grief, so that we may better understand ourselves and those around us.
