Through the diminished response to perception, the present becomes constructed through abstractions derived from past experience. The projected experience this generates distances the connection between the individual and the environment.</p><p>This work is an exploration in the inherent relationship between the individual and space through the everyday experience of life. By deliberately using abstractions through the disassembly of association and connotation it explores a way of analyzing perception and materializing the experience of space. Structured within Mexico City, which exhibits the daily inhabitation of space in a physical and clearly present manner, it analyzes the visual works and process of Francis Als as a framework for synthesizing perceptual experience. Through the abstraction of idea and representation, this exploration seeks to materialize a process for perceiving space. It is an apparatus for observing the nature of the environment. It is an exploration in seeking the literal.</p> 2012-09-18 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1337888830 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1337888830 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
