Abstract
This paper is divided into two sections, each composed of three parts. Section one discusses five artworks that feature in the terminal exhibition titled SCENES! FROM THE PHENOMENOMICON!. This research writing, titled in ALL CAPS to reflect the overarching voice throughout this practice, will note concepts, intentions, and symbols present in the visual artwork, and will draw connections to its formal decisions and references. Section two is composed of an introduction and three short creative writing vignettes – stories developed while working on the visual artwork which serve as open ended lore. The creative writing, written and titled in lowercase to reflect a contemplative subjectivity, plays speculatively with the themes presented in the visual artwork: colonial contact, migration, and mutation.
