Mullican's multifaceted exploration of the universe of his own perceptual and cognitive makeup begins just on the other side of the looking glass from that of 1960s Conceptual artists grounded in performance such as Bruce Nauman and Vito Acconci (whom David Salle referred to as an "anthropologist of his own universe"). Mullican's unbounded archiving of the self is the result of his constant testing of the boundary between objective and subjective reality; for Mullican, images have equal weight in both those worlds.
