This work began as an exercise in classification. I tried to position a banal series of objects (a group of water closet accessories) in relation to Keats idea of 'negative capability'. I paired this with a textual response to the contemplation of the objects themselves.

The title is a quotation from 'A Fancy' by Keats.
