The majority of my projects deal with language (or semiotics) since they consist of signs representing specific information. The map and poker-projects are the most relevant examples.

The projects grouped here deals specifically with language, either with the subject of translation, or with (with some recent exceptions) the Norwegian language. I guess the latter is a minor barrier to the reader of this text...

Anyway, although wordplay and paradox-inducing juxtapositions is out of reach for English readers, the visual element is as important here as with my other projects.
