    What happens when you can’t speak? Have you ever had the words but can’t physically get them out? Where do those words exist when never communicated? Recently, I lost my voice for more than a few days. It was an odd experience that is finding its way into my current poster project.

    This is a series of posters that deal with concealed or hidden language. These prints contain both analog and digital processes, including ink jet prints, letterpress, lithography and hand drawn elements.
