An investigation into the rhythm and cadence of the written word. Reflecting sound waves and breaking down the written language into its most minimal, abstracted form. I wanted to connect with the authors work in a way that was beyond words. 
The method; I typed an extract of the poem on my typewriter whilst recording the sound of the typewriter. Finding that the structure of the written word would vary depending on subject matter and personality of the author. I would then replay the sounds and draw them onto paper in the rhythm and staccato of the recording. My choice of application of lines represented the various soft and bold sounds.
Monoprint was a nod to the printed text in books, as was the structures of the works. Pages of a book abstracted, smudged, defined and blurred with my reaction to the written work.
