		Whether in plantation records, newspapers, court or legislative records, fls appear almost exclusively as objects to be counted, contested, controlled, and in general kept track of.
		Both, in fact, are unique records of their kind, visually depicting experiences that invite the viewer to consider the self-reflective dimension of the life-worlds the artists attempted to portray.
