Grammature - a project by Ivan Dal Cin

Grammature

After getting into math, I also became fascinated with language, especially writing as a system of graphemes. In this first graphic project, I played around with written form in two opposite ways: by mimicking a calligraphic style that looks readable at first glance but is actually meaningless; and by hiding words within tangled signs that make them almost impossible to decipher. The idea was to physically trace and measure the gap between sign, gesture, and meaning, as well as between conventional code and expression.
