AS this is an informal tale, restating my master’s studies.
AS I was in the midst of a Uturn, entering formal art education, my hopes and expectations were unclear but deeply felt.
AS ever, I feel compelled to question, review, examine some more. AS every question gives an indication to the inner world of the questioner. AS if I want to know if there is a pattern or a path?
AS a collector I have documented, framed and reflected with words and stored. As curators act I showcase my creative learning journey.
A Language of Things

This exposition is in progress and its share status is: visible to all.
What happens to language when we stop writing with letters, words, and other signs on paper and instead use three-dimensional objects? And if we go one step further and, rather than speaking with sounds, show one another objects in order to express ourselves? The "Language of Things" explores the possibilities of notation, communication, and poetry with a set of 100 shapes. Moving between translation and imagination, it extends its vocabulary as it proceeds.
The project began in August 2015 and makes use of Michael Schwab's 100 proto-objects:
