And so, somehow, over the years, little by little, I found that I was moving all of my things from my own room in the main house across the garden to this little house, till I finally asked to have my bed moved as well, and so the little house became mine.
The shift from one thought to another to another to another can be imperceptible, blurry between slightly-the-same-and-slightly-different. How others shift our world view, our view of ourselves, our view of those around us, similarily functions through subtle transformations.
Using reflectivity and a series of abstracted slices, this Cornell Box attempts to express the imperceptible transformation of thought and also the blurriness between one’s views as they’ve conceived them themselves and how they’ve been influenced by others.

Where does one shape end, how is it reflect back onto others, what shapes and reflections can be seen through cracks and openings?
