Abstract
During my time in the Master of Art Studio program at Sacramento State University Sacramento I have had an opportunity to expand my perceptions and grow as an artist. This work represents my exploration of time-based media, hybrid media, installation art, and the concept of immersion. The process expresses my personal struggles with mental illness from a subjective perspective. My search for source material to best communicate my content included audio and video exploration both in and out of the studio. The tools chosen to activate the content demanded equal amounts of research and attention. The result is a cohesive body of work that reflects my time in the program.
