This work explores the idea of storage, and archiving channelled primarily through my own memories of growing up in rural Nova Scotia. Using found wood from homes in Ontario and the shoreline of Nova Scotia lends their weight of historical context embedded within these objects. These works contain either an item from my personal history or a bit of writing that is intended to be kept secret. Each item is surrounded by a circle, encasing the object there by saving it.
