Artifacts of Memory
A collaborative risograph zine that looks at everyday objects as memorials to people, places and experiences that shape our identity.
This publication was inspired by The Meaning of Things by Eugene Halton and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, a book that examines "possessions of selfhood," the idea that we can know someone or know ourselves by the things we own. This narrative collection of objects uncovers the surprising significance found in mundane material culture.
