Abstract:
This written thesis supports the creative thesis entitled Surreal Worlds: Sculptural Forms and the Architecture of the Unconscious. This thesis is an exploration of the role of the found object in my creative process as a starting point dictated by the unconscious desires and experiential reality that define who I am and how I perceive the world. Using the found objects I have surrounded myself with as both starting points and units within actual pieces, I intend to create sculptural forms that illuminate the complex structures and topography of my mental landscape.
