MEMORIAL FOR A FRIEND tries to tackle how and why we develop a sense of ownership over the dead.
It looks back into the past to rediscover and in many ways rewrite the loss of a childhood friend, asking questions about gatekeeping death, false narratives, and grief.
This immersive piece is a journey through memory, intimate moments, and personal struggle, seeking to uncover how the life we live, lives on in the minds of others.
