Abstract

Liminal Glyphs, MFA thesis exhibition of Kate Fitzpatrick, was on display at Gillespie Gallery at George Mason University in Fall of 2020. The exhibition provided 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.
