Language Exists Inside of Language, Secreting a Secret Sound Similar to Silence maps the complex relationships between visual and textual representation. Using various styles and strategies, Ware develops contexts that allow for an interplay between image and text. These contexts ask the viewer to consider similarities and differences, intersections and frictions between these two modalities.
