The 50-year-old artist revealed how Reeves has helped out the creative side of her work. Describing him as “an inspiration,” Grant shared to People, “What I love about Keanu and our exchange is that we’re pushing each other to build new roads. Seeing the other person’s problem-solving is inspiring, like, ‘Oh, well, okay, this one, that’s a cul-de-sac. How do I try this other thing?’” They bond over the “storytelling” aspect in their careers, and they see those similarities in each other.


“My work is much more of a private performance, but I have a text that I interpret in the studio into a painting, into an object,” she added. “He takes the text in private and then turns it into a performance in public. There’s a relationship. We’re both at the heart readers and researchers. We both care about people, and we care about characters.” This is truly a match made in heaven — the dynamic duo are soulmates.
