I was struck by the beauty of the altars that Rosanna shared. The intricate detail amazed me but what I connected with most was her words of how it was a process of healing and represent a call to action rather than simply decoration which relates to the point of the altar I made for the midterm. She calls on everyone to know that we are not far from healing and whave the ability to do it within oureslves, we just must allow ourselves permission to do so. Furthermore I was very curious about their ideas on preserving names and not using them in conversational manner and would like to learn more about that ideology. Grief is a very individual and emotional journey and these altars are one way to confront those feelings and come to terms by celebrating the life rather than mourning the death.
