“I explore memory, care, and the aesthetics of livingness by centering older women who have been both celebrated and overlooked. Through portraits, objects, and sound, this series—GrandMams.22.10.15.Grannies.Decadence.Art.Part—creates a space where tenderness, ornament, and candid testimony meet, inviting viewers to reconsider narratives of aging and beauty.”

The term "GrandMams" refers to a community of spirited grandmothers who are redefining what it means to be a granny. These women are breaking free from conventional norms, embracing their individuality, and expressing themselves through various art forms. From painting and sculpture to music and dance, GrandMams are proving that age is not a barrier to creativity.

This guide shows how to develop a long-form, multimedia art project inspired by a title like “GrandMams.22.10.15.Grannies.Decadence.Art.Part….” — an evocative, fragmentary prompt that suggests ancestry, dated moments, elderly subjects, aesthetic decadence, and serial or episodic presentation. It covers concept development, research, ethics and consent (important when working with real people), creative directions (photography, painting, collage, performance, sound, video, installation), technical workflows, exhibition and publishing, audience engagement, and documentation. Use it as a flexible blueprint you can adapt to your resources, context, and intentions.
