Abstract
During my two years in the M.F.A. program, I have attempted to explore the theme of "an object in space," my art-making process, and how both are interconnected with my interest in Christian spirituality. I hope that the body of works that has resulted invites viewers to experience in some way a contemplation of individuality. In my readings on Christian mysticism over the past few years, I have often been struck by the similarities in process, intent, and attitude of the artist and of the mystic. Therefore, my discussion of the formal strategies and concepts embodied in the installations in this show, will be interspersed with ideas on Christian mysticism where I feel there is a convergence. I will go into the most detail with my discussion of the development of my last work, St. Francis's /Pd per Chesterton, because I feel that it most fully and clearly touches on the object in space theme, existential alienation, and the Christian view of individuality. In the final section of this paper, I will discuss the most significant problems I encountered with my art-making process, and what I feel was ultimately my inner motivation for making this body of works.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
