The exhibition held materializations and reimaginations of ephemeral moments: an elegy of familiar, often overlooked patterns found on the periphery of our daily lives. This written thesis follows the exhibit’s layout and artworks. It demonstrates the development and influences of the work while examining the significance of place, the body, material, and process, through the lens of attention, care, and possibility.enEternity fleetingLightCracksPapermakingSculptureKintsugiThesis
