"The experience of grief and of mourning is cultural, it's personal, and it looks very different for different people," says Adjoa Jones de Almeida, Deputy Director for Learning and Social Impact at the Brooklyn Museum.

Art is an expression that connects our heart to our minds. Adjoa speaks to the ways that artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer fuses emotion, action, technology and connection in "A Crack in the Hourglass, An Ongoing COVID-19 Memorial."

On April 23 from 3–6 pm, this exhibit will be part of "Imagine Repair", hosted by The Zip Code Memory Project at The Cathedral of Saint John the Divine. While celebrating of the power of community and care demonstrated by NYC neighborhoods unequally affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, attendees are invited to join in a satellite installation of "A Crack in the Hourglass" by adding portraits and stories of their lost loved ones to the exhibit's online archive.
