Tombstone Artist

Alexandra Grant bought a stolen tombstone, kept it in for 11 years and tried to sell it on eBay for some quick cash. She made a documentary called “Taking Lena Home” to return the tombstone after she was contacted by officials and told that it was a felony to sell historical object. Most people who have seen the film agreed that she was doing it for the opportunity to advertise herself as someone who cares and not because she’s a law abiding person or care about historical objects. Tombstones are the motif in her arts, and she joyfully takes photos and selfies at cemetery. Grant’s favorite coat has leopard print, which is similar to the coat of Jennifer Syme, who is Keanu Reeves’ deceased ex-girlfriend and the mother of his stillborn daughter. Grant also has other items of clothing that are similar to Jennifer Syme’s clothing and the color lipstick she wore to the LACMA event is Jennifer Syme’s trademark lipstick color. On Grant’s website is a photo painting of a child with the word Archer on her shirt, and a tombstone next to it with the word “we all die in the end.” Whether it is merely a coincide or a sick joke, Archer is the middle name of Reeves’s stillborn daughter.
