Overview

Ticket to the Unknown considers the schizophrenic texts of Aloïse Corbaz, an Art Brut artist better known for her drawing than her writing. Both a translation of texts and a commentary on dilemmas of reading and translation in artist's writing, this book explore the limits of the sayable and the visible as well as the corporeality of text itself.

She received her BA from Carnegie Mellon University and her MFA from Stanford University. She is represented by Patricia Sweetow Gallery in San Francisco and Fleisher/Ollman Gallery in Philadelphia.
