“I cannot tell you which star I was, which was the wind that stirred my branches. What beast I met and was afraid. until a woman dyed his hand red. Without speaking. "

Letters, punctuation marks and ornaments, wood types and lead types are handset in an experimental typographical composition to show a representation, a cave painting, maybe. Is a woman who has drawn or carved her inner though, and feelings, and fancy? Maybe her man was out for hunting, maybe she was with the babies telling them tales.
Before the words we all have learned, we didn’t need words. We have imagination, as children show us.
In this artwork types become signs, figures.
Once again and for the first time.
