This site displays work I have been sculpting in clay, and other works I have been assembling in the territory of my conlang (constructed language). The pages highlight the miniature, ceramic village of Ventiçello I built, and my invented language of 'contemporary' hieroglyphics, called Tapissary. I experiment with possibilities in the novel evolution of glyphs. Inside, you’ll find illustrated stories that take you on a bilingual tour of the culture and history of the village.
Language of Symbols
Events: Come explore the Hieroglyphic Collages page for the upcoming show at the Amos Eno Gallery of art in New York. The subject journeys through this invented language of native glyphs and its imaginary world. It is an unconventional, linguistic approach to art. By clicking the link above, you will discover more information about the display and a short film presenting the exhibit "Hieroglyphic Collages".

Bienvenu(e) à Ventiçello !

J'affiche sur ce site de la langue tapissary mes créations sculptées des mains, et 'dans la tête'. La suite des pages met l'accent sur le village miniature en céramique que j'ai bâti, et ma langue inventée d'hiéroglyphes, le tapissary. Dans le site, les histoires illustrées vous conduiront dans un tour binlingue (l'anglais et le tapissary) de la culture et l'histoire du village.
Découvrez l'expo "Collages en Hiéroglyphes". Il y a un film court qui accompagne les informations.
