Language defined is the principal method of human communication. It consists of words used in a structured and conventional way and conveyed by speech, writing, or gesture. It’s a system of communication used by a particular community.
Language is communicating with others and also how I communicate with myself. The language I choose to use is a large part of how my reality is shaped - and it’s within this reality that I find - become aware - of my source.
Reflections
I use language as a tool in my creative practice.
Language can also hold me back.
Language challenges me to stay curious - a value deeply engrained in my creative practice.
