It requires me to be meditative, working with one bead at a time. These wearable beaded tear drops are a product of slow moving meditation, and they invite the viewer to ask: what shape does your grief take? Tears produced from different emotional responses appear differently under a microscope. The tears here are from tears of grief. I think that when we take time to work with our grief deeply, internally, introspectively, we can find that it is a generative process. One that forcefully requires we attend to it, lest we drown in it. When we look at our grief up close we may find that it is beautifully shaped. \u003cbr\u003eThe black edging beads and backing are a reference to the darkness that grief exists within, while highlighting the shining light that grief can produce within us. It is also a nod to the black-lined envelopes used during the Victorian period that served as notices of passing. So now I ask you, what shape does your grief take?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLearn more about Audrey \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/waawaatebeads.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eHERE\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ghost Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46119738605759,"sku":null,"price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/7084\/0511\/files\/unnamed-7.jpg?v=1788229553","url":"https:\/\/ghostgallery.org\/products\/audrey-medwayosh-beaded-tear-drop-earrings","provider":"Ghost Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
