NO WORDS: a lexicon of intangibles is an immersive installation of eight suspended ‘clootie bundles’ — a visual representation of ways grievers find themselves tethered to the invisible through beautiful and strong ties to their no-longer-present beloveds.

The twig bundles are made from Oregon Ash branches salvaged after a devastating ice storm. The fabric ties, sourced from worn garments and other found materials, reference a hereditary custom of tying small bits of cloth to tree branches near holy wells in Ireland as a means of seeking divine intervention in our earthly affairs.

The rock cairns are Idaho Ledgestone.
