CV
I am interested in the relationship between
images and text
because I enjoy writing and visual art
. My work is often inspired by the topics of my essays or what I am reading. For a great discussion about this topic, p
lease read George L. Dillon's essay entitled,
"Art and the Semiotics of Images: Three Questions About Visual Meaning."
