Grace writes about the video:
THE FOUR GRACES, A Video in four chapters speaking to my obsession with time and the fact that I embrace the "dance of life" despite aging.
CHAPTER 1 – I CAN STILL DANCE AND PAINT
A self-portrait depicting my passion for painting, and my dance through that process over a lifetime; all of which involves risk and a baring of the truth as I see it. The paintings in this video are part of my "Desecrated Landscape" series.
CHAPTER 2 – THE SLOW DANCE OF TIME
My obsession with the passing of time as I perform a "slow" dance weaving my body in and out of the rain, clouds and earth.
CHAPTER 3 – A REBEL DANCING AFTER ALL THESE YEARS – RISE UP!
Dancing against a backdrop of urban images of graffiti, a beautiful art form which does not get the respect that it should. The personal and the political are interlaced as time speeds on.
CHAPTER 4 – PAINTING EXPOSED
This video depicts an artist dancing exposed and vulnerable. Art openings, pre-painting rituals, the act of painting, are the focus of this video.

Floating in a sea of water, snow, fire, earth and sky. Dealing metaphorically with the subconscious memories of my grandparents as well as other family members' deaths in a concentration camp during Hitler's Third Reich in Germany. This piece addresses my feelings of aging and vulnerability as I am literally "bared" and the ever-present nature of change be it constructive or destructive.
I will not be Intimidated:
