Creative Access Description

A white book cover with the title “WORDLESS” printed across the width of the cover and repeated down the page in a black serif font. With each row of the title, there are letters taken out so that no row has a complete title, creating negative space with the missing letters. In the negative space, near the top of the page, is the title “The Performance Art of Rebecca Belmore” in a smaller sans-serif font.
