Abstract
"The Memory Yields: B.F.A. Thesis Exhibition" is a collection of miniature oil paintings that aims to create an intimate and personal viewing experience. This is felt as the viewer approaches the piece, each step forward rewarding the viewer with more information. Still, there is a distance created by the miniature scale itself that cannot be avoided. The Memory Yields was exhibited at Trisolini Gallery in Athens, Ohio in December 2013. Accompanying the body of work is a written investigation into the theory and methods of production, informed by the study of family photography and how it functions within personal narrative. This thesis is in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Graduation from the Honors Tutorial College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art with a Painting concentration.
