creation (receipt collection)

Yesterday for our group creation, my group and I made a an apple museum. I was inspired by this idea of collection to make a collection of a certain item into something deeper than the the individual items alone. I know my parents keep a lot receipts at home “incase they ever need it.” I asked my dad to send me a couple pictures to see if I could make a story out of this collection. Below is a collage of the receipts (these are receipts for one person only), and here are the things I was able to tell from this collection:

  • Drinks a significant amount of coffee (almost everyday)
  • Coffee from the same shop, usually same time (morning)
  • He/she probably spends a lot of time in that area (work place? home?)
  • Coffee addiction? Age? (based on coffee consumption)
  • Country of residence (based on currency and information on receipt)
  • Spending habits
  • Income bracket he/she belongs to
  • How often he/she eats out
  • Physical health (Pharmacy receipts, Physiotherapy)
  • Age (based on doctor’s visits)
  • How developed the city he/she lives in is
  • Whether he/she lives in this country or is just visiting
