If you've had to say goodbye to a grandparent, you'll know that looking through their personal belongings, clearing their home and finding closure is an emotionally difficult process.
For Welsh animator and illustrator Gemma Green-Hope, when her grandmother Elizabeth (or Gan-Gan as she called her) passed away in 2010, sorting through her possessions not only evoked memories, but also resulted in a new understanding of who her grandmother was.
&quot;How do you make sense of all the other things that someone leaves behind, the things nobody sees, boxes full of photographs, and bits of string?&quot; said Green-Hope on Vimeo.
The artist transformed the old books, clothes, jewellery and photographs she found into a touching stop-motion portrait.
