I’ve always been collecting things since I was a child. I would collect mainly dolls and stuffed animals, especially Webkinz. I would display my favorite ones on my bed, and I had a huge plastic bin for the ones that I didn’t play with as much, but was too attached to to give away. As I got older, I began collecting rocks because my family and I would go to the north shore to Minnesota for hiking and swimming. These shores contained many unique rocks and shells, and tiny shops around the shores would sell polished versions of them that I would collect as well. As I got older and moved to California for college, I began collecting rocks sold in various shops around the beach, and shells on the shore. I went to the beach last weekend to find some more shells to display as well. I chose to display this collection because it is something that contains objects that I began collection in highschool, combined with the unique shells that I collected for this project. I display this collection on my windowsill in my apartment, mixed with my collection of succulents. I decided to display this collection organized by color and size, so that it would still look visually aesthetic, even though the rocks have unique patterns from one another, and the shells obviously look very different than the rocks.
