Zenined, Sean Ridgers, Sana
Yousef, Michael Weller, Petros
Samano, Abdul Garoub, UK. Completed in this form, August 2012 I wrote down associations, memories, and patterns. The English and Arabic words were entered into puzzle-making software which distributed them about a grid, filling in blank spaces with random letters, junk. A puzzle-book was drafted and six people were invited to collaborate by writing or drawing or painting a response. Each contributed a unique volume. A second draft followed. Volumes from the first and second drafts are presented here. The letters are at your disposal. You can search for the words entered or find your own. But as for me, try as I may, I can never find the words to express.... A4 printed sheets, spiral bound. Medium: bright highlighter pen, fabric paint, acrylic gesso, and pencils (various), photocopy and paste. |
