'Dead ends is a simultaneously humorous and serious project that addresses questions about ended relationships (friends/lovers) and the things that remain after them.'Dead ends' revolve around materiality and memory linked to objects left behind after a relationship. In email correspondence with the other person who was sent a photograph of the item and my own memory notes, I have asked for their view on the relationship today.

-Now I’m a professional mindreader. At that time I wasn’t. So I wish you would have told me about how you did experience the whole thing about Christmas that year. Maybe you did say something but I didn’t listen well enough. I was probably occupied with my own issues about myself and my family. (The bourgeois heritage is both a blessing and a curse.) For both of us I wish we would have cared more about each other and less about our selves. But we were in a different place of life then and you shouldn’t be too hard on yourself in hindsight. Still I’m sorry because I think the grog tumblers were my idea of gift. I definitely don’t agree with pathetic by the way. Thanks for all the laughs.
