Script

I will write out my name over and over until the word and the letters lose meaning and become merely an assortment of symbols. Writing is a convention that has attributed meaning to symbols as they represent spoken communication. Considering my studies and my love of the written word, it is an interesting act to strip away the overtones that “Kirsten” possesses for me. There are of course other women that define “Kirsten” but in the purely egotistical sense, I strip away the sense that the curve of my script and the linked letters form my identity. I strip myself.
