KATE FITZPATRICK: LIMINAL GLYPHS

Exhibition Overview:

Kate Fitzpatrick’s MFA Thesis Exhibition, Liminal Glyphs, provides a space to explore the nature of language, meaning, and identity through the investigation of sign systems. This exhibition represents an inquiry into the transitional boundaries that exist in the interpretation of written language. The creation of the artist’s own glyphs as script explores how sign systems play a crucial part in the construction of our own reality by defying meaning when we no longer have the key to unlock it. The resulting artwork comes from the artist’s self-reflection of life experiences with language and the investigation of language philosophy. Kate Fitzpatrick explores the gap that exists between image and text to create interpretive spaces that appear as mantras or broken language, glyphs that gather and float away, thread that rolls into a ball, and paint that is scraped away to reveal new worlds.
