Grant is an artist based in Los Angeles who has gained much acclaim for her work in multiple media, such as painting, photography, drawing, sculpture, film, and more. She has collaborated with famous artists all over the globe to develop ideas like translation, identity, and social responsibility through art.

She has worked with many famous artists and creators, including Michael Joyce, Channing Hansen, and Hélène Cixous. Grant has lived in Mexico, France, and Spain previously.

Additionally, Grant is the founder of grantLOVEproject for raising funds for art-based non-profit organizations. She is the driving force behind many small-scale art exhibitions, publishing houses, and art centers throughout Los Angeles, New York, and Paris.

Grant often tries to add relevant questions and themes to her work, merging different media forms to create the best creative result. In an interview for People, Grant compared her creative world to film by saying:

"I think there's a lot of similarities. Sometimes I feel like, to make a film, as we're seeing now in the strike, that it's a cruise ship. Everyone is dependent on everyone else [...] To make a film, you require hundreds of people. To be an artist, you don't. You require one. You require a community to get the work into the world, but not to actually make it. I think part of the inspiration is the differences of scale."

Grant also entered the Hollywood spotlight in 2019 when her relationship with John Wick actor Keanu Reeves became public.
