With monuments to lost languages in mind, I carved the foraged poem into a plaster block, aiming to obscure the words in the carving style, further dissolving the importance of meaning in the poem. I like the idea of making something that is an extension of a long process of unwinding meaning but building something new. I want to either make some entirely new form of communication, or completely break down the forms of communication that we already have, maybe using some kind of code so that these elaborations on the loss of meaning can be decoded- kind of like morse.
