About The Storyteller:
Mara is a narrative artist, drawing on her rich, dual Kenyan/Scottish cultural heritage, to create worlds that explore contemporary issues through legend, myth and fantasy. With her own vision of the beauty, history and aspirations of people of African heritage, she fuses ancient and modern in an intoxicating experience where the audience takes center stage leading to invitations to perform across the world and to create bespoke stories for those who dare to step into the world of fantasy.

Curator’s Note By Gal Cohen
galcohenart.com instagram.com/@galshugon

“The Gateway to Eternal Souls” Series started with the rise of the pandemic. Grant, like too many Americans, suffered the loss of family members due to COVID-19. The series of work is an artistic tribute to people struggling with the disease, with no family members around them for support and care. Grant created a “gateway or heaven’s gate” for families who had to deal with this tragic crisis, with “the hope that the artwork will bring peace and dignity to the sick and their loved ones dealing with the virus.” With the advent of social distancing, the pandemic has forced us to become more distant from each other. While of clear benefit for health and safety, the pandemic has forced whole segments of our society to become increasingly absent from public view. How do we ensure human dignity for those both visible and hidden?
