Invented by the Surrealists in the 1920s, the Exquisite Corpse is a parlour game that brings together the disparate contributions of participants to create a collective portrait artwork. For this discussion on the end of life process, we invite three participants—a professional organizer, a hospice nurse, and a grief counselor—to share their work as it relates to the life and death of people. What is the relationship between possessions and a fear of death? How does one work toward a “good death?” What are new forms to handle grief? Through a narrative portrait of one woman’s journey through death and dying, each panelist will discuss how their work fits into the process.
