Through a combination of conceptual and intuitive operations, Alexandra Grant transforms chosen texts into patterns of color, shape, and form, giving them new life. Her collaborations with Michael Joyce, the renowned hyperfiction writer, and the writings of theorist, novelist, and academic Hélène Cixous inspired Grant to create The Ladder Quartet, a series of four large-scale drawings that become wordscapes or landscapes of language. The MOCA exhibition will present these drawings along with new work. MOCA Focus: Alexandra Grant is presented as part of MOCA Focus, a major initiative to showcase the work of emerging artists in Southern California. The exhibition is curated by MOCA Associate Curator Alma Ruiz and is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue.
