Decoding is a thought-provoking and visually striking mixed media collage that delves into the complexities of dyslexia and the overwhelming struggle that individuals with this learning disability face when navigating the written language. Measuring 48cm by 48cm, this piece is a compelling exploration of the challenges that dyslexic individuals encounter when attempting to decode and make sense of the English language. At first glance, the artwork appears to be a jumble of letters, words, and phrases arranged in a seemingly chaotic manner across the canvas. The text-based art is intentionally difficult to read, with overlapping words and distorted letters creating a sense of confusion and disorientation for the viewer. This deliberate visual manipulation mirrors the experience of someone with dyslexia trying to decipher written words on a page. The artist`s intention with Decoding is to evoke empathy and understanding for those who struggle with dyslexia, shedding light on the frustration and isolation that can often accompany this condition. By presenting the viewer with a challenging and ambiguous composition, the artist invites us to consider the ways in which language can be both a barrier and a source of empowerment for individuals with dyslexia. Through the use of mixed media collage, the artist has created a textured and layered surface that adds depth and complexity to the piece. The combination of materials such as paper, fabric, and paint adds a tactile and visual element to the artwork, further immersing the viewer in the sensory experience of trying to decipher the cryptic messages within. In Decoding, the artist invites us to contemplate the power of language and the ways in which it can both unite and divide us. By confronting the viewer with a challenging and enigmatic composition, the artwork prompts us to reconsider our assumptions about communication, literacy, and the barriers that prevent us from truly understanding one another.
