Images Are Words/Las Imagenes Son Palabras
by Matt Keegan

Images Are Words/Las Imagenes Son Palabras by New York based artist Matt Keegan employs the same visual strategy as his A History of New York, but on a more massive scale. At 774 pages, the book is composed entirely of flash-cards that Keegan's mother hand-assembled over fifteen years to teach English as a Second Language to adults. The sequencing of the book is rhythmic and musical with recurring themes, motifs and geometries.
