Abstract
This thesis explores the uncertain nature of representation and focuses on the precious failures of language and memory. In doing so, remembered narratives of a young-adult speaker are encountered as they’re confronted with words. It’s during that state of fitting words to an experience when a representation of the memory must prevail despite its complete otherness. A sense of otherness further complicated in this thesis by the work of ekphrasis, the representation of a representation of a representation. Thus, this thesis too attempts to investigate generally, yet specifically, the state of “being,” the subjectivity of color, and the necessity of light.
