2. Describe some ways in which your personal culture and social environments are “constructed”.

3. Describe some ways in which your physical environment/space is “constructed”.

4. In your daily life, what would you consider to be “real” and what would you consider to be “constructed/fabricated”?

5. Describe a narrative tableaux that you might create to be captured by a photograph.
