Crucial to Understanding:
a 3 part work installation

No Language for Strange Places  
(audio portion above)

Audio consists my myself reciting "Secalp egnarts rof egugnal on" (No Language for Strange places written backwards)
I then reversed the recited recording in an attempt to hear the properly pronounced phrase.  
The resulting audio compilation is paired with the text.

Text: Randomly chosen excerpt from Karen Barad's Meeting the Universe Halfway Page 173. Typed backwards (with errors) on Stonehenge paper with metallic green/gold ink transfer. Topic of paragraph is historical theoretical physics disputes. Click image below (right ) to see reversal.

Painting: Oil on plywood, 3x4' WIP 
working title "Crucial to Understanding"
