A painting of various object’s from Megan’s life from the stuffed moose in the upper right for babyhood to the form titled “Study…” for the study abroad. This circularly movement spirals into the center where wood grain references Megan’s rural childhood yet the open spot indicates the possibilities that the future holds.

The inside of the sculpture just showing between the paper, 2018.

The ghost like material of the paper reflects the etherealness of memories. More strongly still, the threads appear to run and pool across the top of the piece and, glance through the plexiglass, one can see the threads descending to coil on the tabletop, like a collection of ideas, dreams, and memories.
