My Veils

At the time I was creating the series  Veil (1976 EPC didital edition) [also pdf of Xexoxial Edition], I also made some other Veil-like works. A couple are in the Sackner collection:"I became a consultant to the world outside" (left) and the horizontal veil below. & then there were two Veil postcards, the latter one published by Station Hill Press in 1980. The conceptual key to the Veil works were that they involved overwriting not overprinting: that is, I overwrote my writing as a composition process. They are a form of writing, not design.

See also: "Study for Veil" -- featured in King Log. This was an "undertext" I rediscovered some years after making the works: it is one of the layers of the Veil.
