| Summary: | Using personal stories, found shopping lists, and symbols of home, this paper examines the aesthetics of the everyday through textile recreations. The works produced for this thesis are informed by my cultural heritage as a settler on the island of Newfoundland, my desire to create a more inviting contemporary art space, and my love for the mundane. Using my collection of found shopping lists, to-do lists, and reminders, I am attempting to create an atmosphere that encourages slowing down, noticing, and enjoying the typically overlooked.
