Biography
Like the letters in a word that evolve into a sentence, Zin Taylor's work is shaped through an accumulation of units.
Within his propositions, modular elements commingle to develop a distinct language of form. A morphology that is uniquely capable of translating an idea into something active, something generative, something else.
In conversation, thoughts about a subject grow into forms about a subject, and from these forms a language of abstraction begins to emerge as a tool to compose with: the dot stretches to become a stripe, the stripe bends into a zigzag, the zigzag softens into a curve, and a description of what thinking can look like is made visual.
