In this episode of The Mourning After, Ben Gibson sits down with Arun Sharma, an Indian American artist, designer, and teacher.
At 17, Arun faced the unexpected loss of his single mother to a heart attack. His journey through grief led him to return her ashes to the Ganges River in India, a pilgrimage that intertwined his personal loss with his cultural heritage and offered a path toward healing.
Arun's art delves into themes of death, loss, and memory, reflecting his experiences and his optimistic approach to life.
