These may appear to be trivial, but they lead the viewer into a realm ofreflection on human existence. I illuminate the junction between the personal and the universalthrough the investigation of information from a contemporary existence. These pieces ofinformation form a network of time passages, subtle humor, and fragile connections through serialarrangement.</p><p>The four exhibited works are part of a larger body titled <i>Personal Anthropology</i>, which visualizes fragments of my everyday life. The recognition of my daily activities such as dreaming, playing, cleansing, and the observation of light is presented via their connection to souvenirs produced by them. The residues from these rituals were collected during the past three years in my living space. Collecting, for me, is a powerful tactic for making sense out of the world I live within and for observing my actions analytically.</p> 2008 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1399902963 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1399902963 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
