How to Speak Good English
Mixed materials on a vintage book
Artist Statement
A vintage book becomes an artist’s question: its pages carved open, a single stone set at its core.

Artist Statement
A Natural Journey through the Yellow Pages unfolds like a whispered secret waiting to be peeled back. Its warm, ochre-toned pages echo both the everyday mundanity of telephone directories and the vibrant pulse of untold stories. A zipper beckons viewers to pause at the threshold between what’s known and what remains veiled. Behind that gentle seam, hundreds of names press against the paper’s thin veneer, each a silent transmission from past to present.
