"As it were" is a collection of seventeen non-verbal compositions that visually explore the story as a form. Considering literary forms, one sees that a poem resides in a shape that is particular to it and inviolable. A novel, however, exists in many pages that all look alike. A story occupies a limited enclosure with a consistent though malleable shape. Each story in this collection uses a different system of generators, each uses its own language. Like drawing, writing is visual and gestural, but with different constraints. Without the force of semantic content holding one's attention in a...

Considering the split between words and images, reading and looking, thinking and experiencing - does anything remain level for long? This book is a visual meditation on split levels by way of pomes.

These pages are based on a series of 9"x12" mono prints. They are NOT tulips - they have no color, need no water, won't wilt and die. Perhaps they aren't haiku either.
