Les scènes de vie

j'ai découvert qu'il s'agissait d'une recherche permanente de moi-même : être un humain avec des sentiments

Atlas of Textscapes DALEIDEN Mendoc Argentina'The Atlas of Textscapes' presents a forty year overview of Tanja Smits text drawings, created directly on magazine articles and newspaper pages. The result is a striking collection of visual patterns and a wide ranging exploration of layout, language, and meaning. At once critical and poetic, the work is both an investigation into the structure of text and an ode to language, slowness, and the fading presence of print in contemporary life. Tanja Smit
