Exhibition Dates/Hours: May 4-7 Artist Statement:

Meghan Romance aims to disrupt commercial conventions within the field of motion graphics to return interpretive power to the viewer through asemic writing. Love for the written word has been a constant throughout Romance’s life; however, over the past four years this relationship drastically evolved into a desire to capture the internal experience of reading in visual form. Her work began with exploring the nature of literary adaptive works and quickly evolved into an exploration of the nature of written language itself. Using this play of written forms to reject the domination of commercial imagery and force her audience into a position of becoming an active viewer to generate meaning based on internal relationships to written forms.
