Growing up literature could not have been less of an interest to Gross but the act of story telling came easily. Encouraged by teachers to write, the craft quickly became second nature, working mainly on short stories, personal essays, and later shifting her focus to script work. Often overwhelmed by life, coupled with a fear of forgetting, writing became not so much a hobby or extra curricular but a way of surviving. A method of purging an overflowing mind so as not to combust.

This space was used as one to publicly share weekly rants, musings on life, and scribbles  during the Covid Pandemic, though such posts have since been removed as the artist feels they no longer best represent her current practice. The past year and a half have kept Gross busy with a larger scale writing project that only her Therapist, Psychic, and best friend Jules know anything about. It’s been a labour of love, and one to keep her mainly holed up in her at home studio. Keep your eye on this space for more to come soon.
