VRC Gallery, Fine Arts Building 2102

A collection can be defined as a group of objects; objects that often are viewed as symbols and representations of the people who gather them by those around them. Typically, these are organized in some way through an innumerable series of categories dependent on the collector. But what of those objects left behind accidentally, mistakenly, or without that individual’s control or knowledge? By exploring and tracing these possessions, their impressions, and their associated data, we are better able to understand that individual, their experience, and their foot print. This exhibition displays a variety of artforms, including historical and contemporary prints, forensic scientific specimens, and the tools used in their creation, to present a variety of creative approaches and processes from the perspective of an artist, a scientific scholar, a visual resource curator, and a collection specialist.
