This approach contributes to our understanding of identity, memory, historicity as dynamic, processual, mediated through polysensory experiential and narrative practices, and highly varied over time, space and communities of belonging. Fourth, in looking to the materiality and visuality of memory as expressed through vernacular practices such as folk epigraphy, commemorative assemblages and photography, I trace the popularization and formalization of such practices as contemporary phenomena for making both places and selves. As commemorative places of scale continue to emerge and incorporate vernacular memory practices and a memory industry geared towards personal historiography in the everyday grows, my work contributes to further understanding the dialogical relationships between place and identity-making across social and individual spheres.
