The exhibition explored the relationships between the cramped space of the page, the space 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 containing writing by myself and by students and faculty in the graduate writing program at the School of the Art Institute.
