wrestledance with mameloshn

2025

wrestledance with mameloshn is a flag book assembled from ten deconstructed woodcut prints and letterpress prints of Yael Horowitz’ poem, mayn tsung (my tongue). By opening and closing the book, the reader participates in the act of fragmenting, aligning, and multiplying the image of the figure wrestle-dancing with the word mameloshn (mother tongue).
