Words Are Objects is the one-person studio of Colombian artist and graphic designer María José Castillo. In their practice, they approach language not only as a tool for conveying meaning but also as a catalog of pliable objects to be examined and manipulated. Their printmaking, installation, and sculptural works are heavy on formal exploration of type and shape—leaning at times on coding, poetry, abstraction, play patterns, the element of chance, semiotics, and the viewer as an active subject for co-creating meaning.[1]
The risograph is shared with illustrators and comic artists Alex Mitchell and Kyle Harabedian, who are part of the organizing team of the Autoptic Festival of Comic Art.
