CONCEPTUAL note
Typos in Fracture is a series of print-based works using rescued antique letterpress types to explore rupture, constraint, and typographic deviation. Rather than transmitting clear messages, these letters resist clarity. They are stretched, repurposed, intervened—pressed into gestures of interruption and emergence.
Each word chosen—REFRAME, FLIP, LEAK—reflects a moment of conceptual tension: when what is supposed to be fixed begins to shift. The works subvert typographic norms, allowing each letter to misbehave, to resist alignment, or to mark its own instability. Some are interrupted by red pigment, others by gaps, layering, or unconventional structure.
These are not compositions for readability, but sites of transformation. They are visual traces of a body negotiating imposed systems—abstracted, yet insistently personal.
Rather than uniformity, these prints embrace fracture. Rather than legibility, they offer presence. And rather than closure, they leave open the possibility of reconfiguration
