Here, I will be documenting my 'Visual Letters' process. I plan to create photographs depicting a message to my brother, who will then draw/paint his response onto the image and return to me. My bother has Down syndrome and has remained selectively mute for several years. As we are both artistic, this will be a more useful and therapeutic way for us to communicate, living so far away from one another.
I plan to create images every Thursday and at the end of each month review them and send a selection of imagery for him to respond to.
These images were taken before considering this project with my brother. I feel I need to 'speak' these to him and feel they are relevant towards our relationship. I look forward to seeing how he responds to them.
