Dreamhouse pt. 2

NEXT, I COLLECTED OBJECTS THAT SPOKE TO MY OWN SENSE OF HOME, OBJECTS THAT REMINDED ME OF MY CHILDHOOD HOME, AND ASSEMBLED THEM INTO AN OBJECT THAT TURNED INTO A SORT OF VIEWFINDER. THIS VIEWFINDER, WHEN GAZED THROUGH, HAD FILTERS THAT TRANSFORMED WHATEVER THE VIEWER SAW INTO A ROSY SCENE MEANT TO SYMBOLIZE A SENSE OF NOSTALGIA FOR THE IDEAL PLACE. WHETHER THIS NOSTALGIA BROUGHT UP FEELINGS OF ROMANCE OR ENNUI DEPENDS ON WHO IS LOOKING THROUGH IT. FOR INSTANCE, IF I WAS USING IT IT REMINDED ME OF THE ROMANCE AND ADVENTURE OF LIVING AT HOME, WHICH PROMPTED ME TO CREATE A WHIMSICAL ‘HOUSE’ USING THE OBJECT LITERALLY AND FIGURATIVELY.
