Working with language

Over the past few days I have been thinking about how to form visual ideas that are gripping, and how this can translate into a visual image. I am very much inspired by influences, tv shows for instance but an idea may come with an image that has text attached to it. As text appears in my work very often but I am interested in the mix of trying to convey a visual language that we can actually read. So For instance I am working on a piece that is called- Can I read. which is a physical object representation of a cola can- and eye ball- and a reed plant. I am aware that reed and read are different but I feel that is my point with this mini project. I have been thinking lately alot of communication and what that means.
