Reaction to the Inherited Traits Exhibit
My favorite piece in this exhibit is Genealogy of the Supermarket by Nina Katchadourian, because it represents this year's theme of family with a very different approach. By taking these supermarket icons away from the product they advertise and by placing them in this family tree backed by a homey looking wallpaper, I almost feel sentimental towards the fictional people in each frame. Their images are ingrained in my mind as a part of both my childhood and my present life, much the way the faces of my extended family are. This unique approach to the idea of family is seen in every piece in the Inherited Traits Exhibit. Both Nina Katchadourian and Heidi Kumao have expanded our school's theme to something more than the expected.
