Rachel Cox documented the final years of her grandmother’s life as she suffered from a degenerative brain disease. The images were made during moments of conversation, gesture and experiences of death; the variety of approaches, performative or candid, reflects a frantic need to record every aspect of her, hoping these moments could be pieced together into a truer portrait. Theirs was a tumultuous relationship of missed connections, but the photographs reveal a deeper language they had been sharing for years, made of mutual vulnerability and trust, acted upon even in death.
