Typography broken down into its most basic (and beautiful) forms to reveal the inherent voice within each shape. Inherent is a collection of concrete poems that uses poetic tools to reduce words and letters and characters to their structural components, celebrating the shapes were used to taking for granted. Produced by physically scraping each letter onto the page using Letraset sheetsa process of tangible transference that requires irrevocable choicethis is a poetry of format that plays with aspects of form and design to demonstrate each typefaces individual poetic stance. Sitting somewhere between Hanjorg Mayers Futura and Johanna Druckers concrete poetics, with a hint of punk DIY zine culture and a heavy study of typographic graphic design, Inherent moves with palindromic rotational symmetry, arrays of potential landscapes, and alien languages where the Roman alphabet goes supernova into brilliant new forms. "These works shimmer, shake, and vibrate with excitement."Johanna Drucker, author of Inventing the Alphabet: The Origins of Letters from Antiquity to the Presentand Diagrammatic Writing
