'Grief Letter' is an ongoing community-based project where people can share their personal experience of loss and grief in the form of a letter. Each letter will be included in the art installation, helping to promote grief support. #griefletterproject

This concept grew out of the artist's own experience of loss, coping with grief and finding light ahead. The process of writing has long been proven to have healing properties. Writing down and materialising thoughts helps release tension, organise mental chaos and decipher traumatic triggers.

Writing the letter addressed to the deceased is a powerful way of diving into subconscious, processing memories, closing some chapters, asking for forgiveness or advice, express anger or regrets or just putting your thoughts down without overthinking.

The Grief Letter project was launched during Vanishing Point, solo exhibition by Natalia Millman in October 2021 at the Crypt Gallery, London.
