Drawers

As I began to think about college in junior year, I thought more and more about growing up and aging. I wasn't as interested in the physical manifestation of age, but rather how the mind and personality change. I thought about how I present personality to others and I wondered if that would change in the future. This idea of maturing and becoming an adult with more layers as life went on fascinated me even more this year since I graduate from high school in ten days. After visiting the school I attended from K-5, I realized how much I have changed as a person. Change is unavoidable and it is embodied differently in each person. I felt that the best way to represent this hidden layer of personality and experiences that tend to develop with age by opening drawers in my house and photographing the contents.
