These Connections Are Organized

2014

If we could see the wiring and connecting structures in the brain, what would they look like? Could we identify where a particular memory was stored? These two specimen sheets are an imaginative look in the microscope at the brain. Perhaps these shapes are in the cerebrum and a childhood memory is tucked neatly into one of the forms.

These two pieces are made of flax paper, newsprint, and Sekishu, with embroidered ink and graphite drawings.

These pieces are a search for thought and memory among the neurons and hippocampus.
