«Creating to the layers» refers to the visual poetry of Ray Nickonova and to the unique archival documents of a combination of typewriters and handwritten hand-paints. As I look at Rha’s visual poems, not only do I break them into graphics and textuals, as well as the layers with which they are written. In my work, I draw attention to Nickonian’s conditional mechanics making a whole work by repainting, penciling and typing each other.




The «Creating to Ply» series was prepared as part of an exhibition project entitled «I Want to Fly A Dog in the Heavens. Touching Rya Nickonova’s archive.» The exhibition takes place from April 22 to May 28, 2025, at the HSE ART GALLERY at the Vinosaur.
