Inspired
by a Chinese legend that the gift of writing
comes from studying the objects of nature,
the images of Cè were created from
collected found organic material. These
forms were arranged into 'sentences' to
read as visual language. Cè is
about reading nature's form, gestures,
and movements as written language. The
series of books take the reader through
an experience much like a Taoist philosophical
journey.
