Vinyl On Vinyl | Sword Words

There’s a saying: the pen is mightier than the sword. It’s a famous phrase by an English author named Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1839. It’s a famous expression that defines that words are more effective than violence. But what if words can be sharper than a sword, as the theme for Tyang Karyel’s latest solo show “Sword Words.” Sometimes, art is sharper than words expressed through visual concepts or ideas that define an artist’s work. It comes from life and personal experience, defined by the innate passion to express it visually beyond words or even physical actions. From that, expressionism comes visual thought that comes from within.
