Abstract

This thesis examines currents trends of minimalism and considers the ways in which it is compatible with theories of ritual, spirituality, and asceticism. This is accomplished by a literature review of the relevant theories, which inform a series of questions used to guide an investigation into contemporary examples of minimalism. A series of blogs and articles are used to gather data and further inform the possibility of minimalist practices being spiritually or ascetically satisfying
