I’m Always Thinking of Chaucer–Pilgrim Gallery

For a long period of time I have been wrestling with a large body of work that encompasses Medieval visual and literary arts called my Word Series. I range far and wide, a detective in pursuit of clues. I layer and synthesize. I rearrange, recontextualize and try to find the right complementarity and resonance among many divergent but related parts.

I am revisiting the Canterbury Tales, both in Middle English and in modern English. Also, admire the directness of medieval European artwork, which was without pretense or guile. The pilgrims in this artwork are contemporary errant word-users.
