Black Rooms is an exploration of the book as mental architecture, where language builds up and breaks down notions of space. The book includes 11 imagined spaces where the senses merge and tongues slip, in stories around blindness, deception, darkness and myths.

 

COMFORT 7/32/00 refers to a note I found on the street one day, that became a portal into a state of mind or a particular time, although the time was out of date or imagined, floating in between past, present and future. The book is a journey through this imagined place, where vision oscillates between perception and mechanics, and where objects and materials are in permanent state of melting or intersecting.

 

Lies and Diet Coke is a collection of notes and poems written over the period of one year. It relates to failures in representation, the night time and how technology affects notions of distance and proximity.

 

(yet) is a journey through everything in between; transit zones, temporary shelters, weightlessness and virtual spaces.
