Projects (2003-Current) > Drawings without Words (2019)

Text-less drawings take inspiration from a 2005 encounter with a ghost-like entity in the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California. The drawings combine architectural schematics with references to hidden rooms, shifting walls, smells, floating shapes, labyrinths, hypnosis, Madame Blavatsky (co-founder of the Theosophical Society in 1875) and the architectural fictions of writers Jorge Luis Borges and Mark Danielewski.
