Publisher's Synopsis
Artworking - lighting a candle, arranging flowers, getting a tattoo, wood working, telling a story, stitching or making first steps on a project - has unique potential to provide solace, lessen isolation and open conversations. Through artworking we can experience, express and gradually transform grief and loss. In this deeply personal story, Annie Bolitho describes how, in artworking, she has found ways through her grief and loss and come to thrive. 'Artworking, honouring tremendous loss' also introduces the reader to many artists, musicians, theatre makers, poets and young people who have made work reflecting on loss through personal circumstance, oppression, disruption of societies and environmental disasters.
