Project Proposal

12041
I would like to work with suprematist-inspired graphics. I may like to start with coherent words and show them gradually moving towards nonsense and simple sounds. I would arrange words so that they could be read alongside the graphics. Larger letters or words would be printed with gold ink and smaller text wold be printed over top in black or gray. I also plan to have some words printed within and over shapes at odd angles. For example, I would like to have incomplete squares or circles with words freely flowing through them.
