Description

Delilah falls victim to ill-health and her sister has something to say about it. The transformative experience of loss, captured through the eyes of an adoring younger sibling, is portrayed through emotive pencil drawings in a journal. These entries hold a dwindling concept of time, eventually being reduced to only muddled depictions of agonizing truths and raw heartache. While optimism is a trait that is maintained, grief is not one to discriminate and the crushing reality of death's permanency inundates Delilah's sister with long-winded bouts of hysteria. As Delilah's health gets progressively worse, the mental state of her sister becomes increasingly reflective of it. Although Delilah attempts to downplay the trauma of her situation, her sister is receptive beyond her years. She has seen Rueben die, she has seen Bumble die, and now her Delilah is nearing death, too. While the journal entries are an expressive outlet that serve to bring closure, Delilah's sister is scarred beyond repair by her circumstances. The journal acts as a witness to the psychological downfall of a child who has been subjected to collapse of all that she has ever known. Delilah's sister proves that being void of hope is much the same as being void of life.
