NEST: installation by PARIS

NEST: is a word I use to describe a perspective I have on family.
My perspective is that family is something you create in you reality.
Whether it be your neighbors or your sister and brother, family is what you perceive as family. Nest means family and what family means to you is different then what family means to me. It is an assortment of people that you love and people that you hate. Nest is different for each person and changes with each season. It’s never constant, because your reality is ever changing. It exists only in your heart and doesn’t have to involve a family tree. In this installation, I set out to involve my audience in my perception of my family.
