Asemic Landscapes
I am fascinated by asemic writing, which is script that has the allure of being legible, but is ultimately an inscrutable abstraction. In a time when sense is speechless and nonsense is news, asemic texts take on new meanings. I created these Asemic Landscapes to scribble a world in which certainty may be tongue-tied, but wonder always gets the last word.
