Sculpture - you can undo/redo/edit
Painting - you can irreparably destroy the work in the process

collecting - memory is a way of collecting the past, selective importance assigned across time, editing out individually deemed redundancy and mundaneness

"To me the important thing is not to offer any specific hope of betterment but, by offering an imagined but persuasive alternative reality, to dislodge my mind, and so the reader’s mind, from the lazy, timorous habit of thinking that the way we live now is the only way people can live. It is that inertia that allows the institutions of injustice to continue unquestioned."

∆ Ursula K. Le Guin
