Scope and Contents

The artist writes in an Afterward, "The title looks back on my recent experience of creating an installation at and for the Freud Museum and at the same time, it locates something else which is entirely distinct conceptually. What I think is positioned here is an extended and episodic view of my personal sense of inhabiting an historically-specific museum of culture with permeable boundaries...Probably artists function by simultaneously enacting the reciprocal roles of curator and subject, therapist and client; I've worked by collecting objects, orchestrating relationships, and inventing fluid taxonomies, while not excluding myself from them." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
