LOL, our first on the wall project with Kay Rosen
Rosen’s clever approach to creating compositions that obfuscate one dimensional interpretation of language has been influenced by politics, environmental turmoil, and humor. Rosen utilizes various grammatical and typographical strategies to challenge how viewers perceive the text they’re reading. Layering, collapsing, and repeating words to render text illegible, Rosen allows for multiple interpretations, while drawing comparisons to icons like Ed Ruscha, Lawrence Weiner and Jenny Holzer.
