Language – both spoken and written – serves as a primary material in Nora Turato’s work, explored through typography, wall pieces, video, sound, performance, and artist books (notably her pool series). Working with found material from a wide range of sources – the internet, social media, press, books, films, music, and conversations – Turato collects and meticulously rearranges an abundance of verbal content, distilling it to its essence. Turato’s new work, conceived specially for the n.b.k. facade, marks a turning point in her practice – an approach that takes her own body as its starting point – using it both as a source of language and as the basis for her handwriting. Turato investigates the conditioning that shape us, focusing on how these internalized patterns are revealed physically through the hand – seeing handwriting not just a form of expression, but a direct outcome of learned behaviour.
