Michael Winkler’s visual/conceptual art explores abstract imagery generated by the spelling of words. The geometric images reveal the pattern encoded in the sequencing of a word’s letters. He says, “The unplanned choices that created the alphabetic patterning in the signs for words are an expression of collective awareness which extends back to the words’ ultimate origin.” The word-generated images are produced using a structured process that creates a spatial transformation of written language. The Roman Alphabet’s 26 letters are represented as a circular configuration of uniquely spaced letter-points. Lines are drawn that interconnect the letter-points according to a word’s spelling.
