Distortion 10 (Visual Lexicon II)

Arranged as a quiet grid of intimate “pages,” the work stages a chorus of small inventions—houses, bicycles, fruit, glyphs, and figures—each hovering between legible sign and private code. Soft washes of pastel color act like remembered light, staining the paper with a gentle temporality that lets pencil scrawls and hesitant lines feel both provisional and deeply felt. The repetition of frames suggests a taxonomy of everyday life, yet the playful distortions and unreadable words turn the whole into a meditation on how meaning is learned, misheard, and tenderly reassembled. In this mosaic of fragments, innocence becomes a method: an aesthetic of searching that honors uncertainty as a form of knowledge.
