Room: Emily Dickinson's White Spaces
This participatory art installation was inspired by Emily Dickinson’s
hand-written manuscripts and her idiosyncratic way of filling the page.
The exhibition investigated the relationships between the cramped
space of the page and of her small bedroom (where she secluded
herself to write), and the paradoxical expansiveness of her language.
As part of the installation, I designed and printed a 96-page book,
interweaving writing by myself and by students and faculty in the
MFA writing program at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
