Beyond Words

by Ingrid Jenkner

Self-guided tour booklet for the exhibition Beyond Words, exhibited at the Art Gallery of Bishop's University from September 15 - October 30, 2004. The text focuses on the use of common modes of written and spoken language "as something more than a transparent medium of communication, Each work in the exhibition presents print or handwriting in a way that defeats a simple reading response; [they] are transformed into tactile, auditory, enigmatic, even illicit, material." (From intro.) Also includes the "Proust Questionnaire," answered by the curators.
