Another Use for Language

Another Use for Language

2023
17” x 24” digital prints
Poetry and collage contributions from Jari Bradley, Laura Woltag, Laurel Sewhere, Maria Silk, Mason J., and Tatiana Luboviski-Acosta.

2000 free take-away posters hung on the wall and were distributed as a part of my installation for Bay Area Now 9. I worked with YBCA to commission six new poems from Bay Area trans and gender non conforming poets, writers, and artists. Each person was invited to physically mark/edit a page from Luther Burbank’s volumes on plant hybridization and create a new piece of writing inspired by the revisions they made. The poems were typed onto the back side of the posters.
