If there was no language there’d be no . . . What? Scarlett Thomas

Where some may see flat, static narratives, I see a spectrum of tonal gradations and realities. What I am creating is literally black portraiture with ballpoint pen ink.

From there, the possibilities of portraying a fully-fledged person are endless. Toyin Odutola
