dc.description.abstract	I began the process of collecting books with the hope that by transforming them into visual art I would better understand why I loved them so much. The way they smell, the colors, small black letters on white pages helping me understand the world better: I still do not know precisely what it is about them that is so lovely. But I am beginning to understand why they are important to me. My emotional connection to books inspired me to use them as material for the exhibition Out of Context. By choosing to create a body of work for a senior thesis exhibition, I was faced with the challenge of finding my voice as an artist. I am buoyed by my past.	en_US
