The 3UP Project
The 3UP Project is an ongoing initiative founded by Angela Fama, working individually with a range of cross-disciplinary collaborators. It supports the co-creation of a second deck of conversation prompts as a companion to the original Death Conversation Game. Each collaboration explores how we meet death, dying, grief, and transformation within our lives and practices, generating three new questions that are then shared through a co-facilitated gathering.
DCG X The ABE Project
ongoing
Launched 2026 01 22
This video series is part of a collaboration between Fama and founder of The ABE Project Labhrás Quigley.
The voices encountered in the videos created come from across the ABE community. Some are death care practitioners, while others are artists or community members drawn into these conversations through lived experience or curiosity. Each video captures a short, unscripted response to one of the newly developed questions, offered not as answers but as invitations.
We hope this collection meets you gently and invites reflection on your own relationship to death, dying, and how we live.

DCG X Radical Care
2024 11 29 - 12 12
Launching The 3Up Project, for two weeks, Fama and Aaniya Asrani/Radical Care invited a collective exploration of vulnerability, creativity and connection. As a part of Art Rise’s initiatives at posAbilities, over 60 people gathered at Alternative Gallery (Vancouver BC), through workshops and drop-in hours, to participate in this reflective experience that explored the intersection of death and care. Space was provided where participants could come together to reflect on their relationships with death and care. Guided by three new Death Conversation Game questions and the use of clay, paper, chalk, and markers, participants engaged in conversations that were verbal as well as tactile. As stories emerged, hands molded clay and shaped paper into forms that held personal and collective meaning. These creations came together to form a collaborative art installation, a visual and tangible representation of this shared exploration of death and care.
