‘I Remember’ is a collective biography of grief and loss in the 21st century. It is a collaboration, a narrative landscape, an evolving archive, a scrolling poem.
What are you losing? How are you grieving? What do you remember? Who have you lost?
This site is collecting memories and imaginaries for us all.
Please add yours.
I would be immensely grateful for contributions on death and grief in the time of Covid-19, especially by patients, their loved ones, medical professionals and key workers.
The I Remember site is part of Grief – A Work in Progress, a series of audience participatory interventions that explore, record and archive the anatomy of loss in the 21st century.
Seeing the coffin for the first time at the crematorium and feeling nothing at all. I remember being terrified I wouldn't be able to remember everything.
the second I realised you were dead which was at the hospital morgue a day later. Reading your death certificate for the first time. On paper it feels very strange.
when you would call me from work on your lunch break and talk total rubbish for an hour. When you would give me lifts to college at 5am and we'd laugh about Sarah Kennedy on BBC2 being a nutter!
going to Pizza Express the first father's day after you died and feeling so angry, I wanted to scream at all the families in there. Telling me off so badly once, it made you cry.
