Abstract
This support paper expands on ideas, research, and observations that have driven my MFA Thesis Project, No Yeah No I Know. The project consists of three book publications which deal in various ways with the relationship between photographic images and words. It is the culmination of work I began in the Fall of 2020, when I arrived at the University of Lethbridge.
The first book, No Yeah No I Know, combines hashtag-anaglyph titles and photographic images. The second book, What was said on the river, is a series of cyanotypes based on a poem I wrote of the same title. The third book is a series of magazine cover-like images that explores the graphic design of photos and single words, called Color Commentary.
The essay is organized into two chapters: the first chapter addresses the theory I sought to understand regarding image-word relations. The second chapter concerns my methodology, the techniques, processes I use to construct my artwork, and includes reflections about artists who have been influential to me.
