dc.description.abstractAbstract Textus, my Master of Fine Arts thesis exhibition, is a body of work in diverse media. Within it, Spiral, a sculptural piece, reflects my background in metalsmithing and jewelry design. There are also seven digital prints/drawings and a digital animation, which depart from my metal work. In Textus I employ words in text as metaphor for our inability to grasp the complexities of existence. We use text as a response to our existential predicament; it is as limited as our biology. I believe we are biologically driven to search for knowledge, yet our biology sets the limits of exploration.
