My grandmother Elizabeth (Gan-Gan) was a force of nature; she was wonderful. Her tiny house was full of treasures; hundreds of books, a Medusa's head, Peter the Great's ivory letter opener, the caul of her mother tied up in blue ribbon, a tile stolen from the Alhambra, a silk blouse embroidered by nuns, deadly poison, beautiful Pre-Raphaelite artworks, a knife carved from the wood of HMS Victory, Granny Green's pince-nez, and diaries full of stories from a hard life well-lived. I used these alongside images and memories of my own to make this short animation, which I dedicate to her memory.
