Robert The’s art brings physicality to a product whose properties seem to exist solely from the intangible knowledge and stories contained within them. His art is reflective of his interest in “the place where word becomes physical.” By messing with the actual forms of books, The changes the way we experience them and derive meaning.
“Obsession with the semiotic erosion of meaning and reality led me to create objects that evangelize their own relevance by a direct fusion of word and form. Books (many culled from dumpsters and thrift store bins) are lovingly vandalized back to life so they can assert themselves against the culture which turned them into debris.” - Robert The 1995
