dc.description.abstractUnearth is a poetic exploration of the function, intention and transformation of art within the context of ritual and sacred spaces. This thesis will discuss the construction of the exhibition, unearth, through the different stages of an initiation sequence. The paper describes the transformation of the gallery into a ritualized physical and mytho-poetic narrative space. Other topics will cover: life history of objects, the embodiment of material in ritual, caverns as sacred space, the essence of language, and conception of being.
