BLEEDING BOOKS

     My new exhibit, "Bleeding Books" is showing from March 4 - April 30, 2017 at Split Screen Installation Space. My deep appreciation to the curator, Dividni Shostakovich for having invited me to install an exhibit at Split Screen.

The exhibit starts in the sky, then sinks to the land level seen in the photo above.


About the build:

‘Bleeding Books’ begins in the sky, and drops to the large fortress at ground level. It is a story in my ongoing series on abuse as seen through the lens of language. What happens when knowledge is so disrespected that it is freely contaminated with doses of falsehood? There are avenues to properly sort facts in this information age, yet we easily turn a blind eye to certain evidence if it goes counter to our beliefs – even when our choices may cause immeasurable harm. In the exhibit, the texts of books bleed falling letters of the alphabet, for they can no longer contain any structure of value.
