‘My poems are visual representations of reading. I imagine the context of the linguistic event, and within that make one gesture. To work through an idea may take many separate gestures, producing something like variations.’ — Alex SelenitschWidely exhibited artist, architect and concrete poet Alex Selenitsch explores the graphic potential of language in striking sequences of concrete poetry.‘Selenitsch’s cross-disciplinary practice blurs the boundaries between poetry, visual art and design. His compositions focus our attention on our habitual mode of looking and reading; they invite us to look, hear and conceive our designed world afresh.’ — D J Huppatz
