IB Theory of Knowledge (TOK) SL Theory of Knowledge Example

You selected three specific, real-world objects that each connect clearly to the prompt.

Your exhibition stays focused on a single TOK question and shows how it appears in different contexts.

You offer thoughtful, varied interpretations rather than repeating the same idea across all three objects.

Your overall argument shows clear engagement with the tension between physical possession, interpretation, and shared knowledge.

Some claims are too broad or absolute, especially where you blur physical ownership, legal ownership, and ownership of knowledge.

A few points would be stronger with more precise evidence or clearly identified sources.

In places, the commentary would benefit from sharper distinctions between what an object is, what it represents, and what can genuinely be known from it.

Some legal and cultural claims need more careful qualification to avoid overstating what the museum, artist, or public actually owns.
