Printmaking

Kay Rosen is an American artist working primarily in text-based painting and wall installation since the 1970s. Her practice isolates language itself as material, deconstructing words, typographic systems, and the spatial conventions of how text appears on architectural surfaces. Using paint directly on walls and canvas, she reveals hidden meanings in homonyms, letter forms, and the gaps between spoken and written language. Her work operates at the intersection of conceptual art and formal abstraction, treating typography as both image and idea.
