GLOSSARIUM is a collection of glosses and draft drawings, written with triangles oscillating around their axis. It started out as a script and pattern for a sculptural project, but I found these drawings quite playful as I tested them out. So I was interested to see them in a public setting, particularly as they are marginal notes: comments, attributions, personal annotations that we all do in some form — small side notes contrasting with the weight of the purist, functional script.

The panels are inspired by the ancient form of writing, the cuneiform. The cuneiform was used to inscribe onto clay tablets, developed as an early form of communication in Mesopotamia, modern Iraq and beyond. But they also depicted mundane notes. There is research suggesting that some cuneiform tablets use the Pythagorean theorem model to measure the land and its belonging.”
