You close your eyes and envision my living room. Cozy, with a coffee table, a carpet, a couch. The faint smell of smoke, a water-stain on the wood. It is an intimate and comfortable environment, borders marked by photographs. The closer you look, the more you see—snapshots, gizmos and gadgets, trinkets and treasures, maybe wedged between pillows, tucked in a drawer, tacked to the wall. Inquiry yields reward; the carpet is worn where your feet used to rest, a scribble slipped between the cracks of the sofa. Each scuff whispers its own version of events. Attached is an inventory list; the documentation of all content that was intended to be in this installation.
