LANGUAGE LOST

A series of large works on paper, built op like a desktop with many tabs open. Each tab is filled with a different perspective on the harshness of polarizing opinions, as a result of algorithms in social media. The works are a plea for nuance, joining various perspectives, and may be read as visual essays. For example, ‘Flip that coin’ (above) revolves around thoughts on facts becoming fiction, and invites to be patient, to step into the other’s shoes, borrow the other’s perspective.

‘L’homme fluide’ questions what part of you is solid and guarded by walls, and what part can become fluid to move towards the other, past anger and fear. ‘Language Lost’, a wall collage, may be read from left to right: from an uncertain world and a loss of ability to speak openly with the other, moving into a new conectedness.
