“At the end of the world, who will read my Diary?” Attempts to explore how we use documentation. Both to retain information through the ideas of cataloging and archiving, but also to give an object a chance to have meaning outside of itself. By documenting an object, you are allowing the work or idea to become something bigger than what it is. Through documenting myself, I am attempting to give people who would never know me an understanding of who I was, what I spent my time doing, and who I spent my time with. A personal catalog of what I’ve done each day has been vital in the portrayal of me as a person. By documenting the mundanity of myself and the life I live, I am inflating my importance and forcing myself to be remembered through the context of art, out of my personal diaries and my image.
