dc.description.abstract"Fret & Focus: worry explored through observation, projection, display, archive, and documentation" is a time-based work made up of 365 microscope slides that physically sample worries, allowing them to be observed and archived. Viewing devices are borrowed and hand-made from various found objects and optical devices and fragments. Fret & Focus was comprised of photographs, drawings and installation of the artist'sstudio space into the gallery for process to be made clearer for the viewer. The written theses and gallery installation explore the limits of observation, even when enhanced by technology, as a source of knowledge.
