Figure 5. A scanned image of Asami’s reflection in response to the mapping prompt in Exhibition Two.
Asami’s reflection is written in black ink in a miniature journal. Her reflection says: “Living with Exhibition Two was very different from Exhibition One. I didn’t physically interact very much with the exhibition because the collection consisted of objects found in nature and are common. While this exhibition was in my room, I was experiencing multiple flares and diverticulitis. Due to that, I was heavily medicated and wasn’t going outside very much. In a way, it was nice to have a form of nature in my room, even if it wasn’t full of life.
